(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The Tunnel to Towers Foundation paid off a mortgage for a Colorado Springs Gold Star Family.
US Army Ranger Staff Sgt. John Allen Reiners was killed on patrol in Afghanistan on Feb. 13, 2010 by a suicide bomber, according to Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Reiner had served two tours in Iraq, before his last tour in Afghanistan.
SSG Reiner received two purple hearts, a Bronze Star, and several other recognitions. His family includes his wife Casey and son Lex.
Tunnel to Towers announced on Thursday, June 19, that the foundation had paid the Reiner family’s mortgage in full.
The Tunnel to Towers Gold Star Family Home Program honors the legacy of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our country by paying off the mortgage or providing the surviving spouses and young children with mortgage-free homes.
