Webster defines Sacrifice as "destruction or surrender of something for the sake of something else. b. Something given up or lost".  Our military soldiers and veterans sacrifice for us every day.  By choice, they give up time with their families when deployed, miss holidays, graduations and birth of their children.  Sometimes they are wounded or even sacrifice their lives, for us.  

Following in the footsteps of his Navy veteran father and Air Force-veteran brother, SPC Tyler Jeffries proudly enlisted in the US Army in January 201.  After two years of training with the Attack Company 2-1 Infantry Battalion, SPC Jeffries deployed to Afghanistan's Kandahar province.  In October 2012 his life changed forever when an IED explosion took both of his legs.  Tyler could represent any of these characteristics (and more) - he took his first steps on prosthetic legs just 44 days after his injury.

Tyler wanted a candle that would remind him of sitting in front of a roaring fire.  We hope we have accomplished this.  Tyler currently resides in Stanfield, NC with his wife Lauren, their daughter, Ella and service dog, Echo.  Tyler is the founder of Hookin' Veterans, a 501(c)(3) organization.
