Honored to spend part of Memorial Day weekend at Carpe Diem CrossFit supporting an incredible cause during today’s “Murph” workout. 🇺🇸

As a Veteran Service Officer with the Veterans Assistance Commission of Sangamon County, it means so much to see our community come together to honor the fallen while also supporting veterans through Vet Court services.

Thank you to Carpe Diem CrossFit owner Matt Saxsma and his fiancée Jamie for the hospitality, and for creating a space that supports and uplifts veterans and first responders. Your dedication to this community does not go unnoticed.

Thank you to Mo Faller for the invitation and collecting donations. You are making a difference in the veteran community. Thank you for your endless support.

“Murph” is always more than a workout — it’s a reminder of sacrifice, resilience, and the importance of never forgetting those who gave everything for our freedom.

Proud to represent the VAC today and grateful for the continued support of our veteran community. ❤️🤍💙

‼️UPDATE‼️
- meeting has been canceled for tonight.

Veterans- if you are involved in a post-AMVETS, American Legion, VFW, etc… educate yourself on the things that are taking place within your community.

If you are a Veteran and do not belong to an organization, I urge you look into doing so.

Please come and show support. 🙏🏼🇺🇸
