Gold Star Mother’s Sunday September 30, 2018<\/span><\/h3>\n

The organization was named after the Gold Star that families hung in their windows in honor of the deceased veteran.
\nAfter years of planning, June 4, 1928, twenty-five mothers met in Washington, DC to establish the national organization, American Gold Star Mothers, Inc.<\/span>
\nThe success of our organization continues because of the bond of mutual love, sympathy, and support of the many loyal, capable, and patriotic mothers who while sharing their grief and their pride, have channeled their time, efforts and gifts to lessening the pain of others.
\nWe stand tall and proud by honoring our children, assisting our veterans, supporting our nation, and healing with each other.
\nOn May 28, 1918, President Wilson approved a suggestion made by the Women’s Committee of the Council of National Defenses that, instead of wearing conventional mourning for relatives who have died in the service of their country, American women should wear a black band on the left arm with a gilt star on the band for each member of the family who has given his life for the nation.
