The worldwide pandemic of 2020 left in its wake devastating numbers of lives lost, resulting in unspeakable suffering for families coping with the grief for their now absent loved ones. This is especially true for the first responders, frontline personnel, doctors, nurses, scientists, medical support teams, and healthcare staff members whose selfless dedication and devotion to caring for others tragically resulted in their own passing. Guided by their personal, deep sense of duty and obligation to heal and help, they put themselves in harm's way, paying the ultimate price so that others might live. Celebrate their lives with Douglas Wagner's composition, We Will Remember Them.

May their bright stars ever spread the night sky, piercing the darkness to continue bringing light, hope, and inspiration to us all.
