“Forever Loved, Never Forgotten”

The Navy Gold Star Program is eternally grateful for the sacrifice of those Service Members who have died in service to our country. To help us to never forget, we have set up this tribute page to honor and remember the memory of those lives. If you would like to honor the memory of your Sailor, Soldier, Marine, Airman or Coast Guardsman through the Navy Gold Star website please submit your thoughts and a photo.

Mason was not just a son and brother but a beacon of light within our family.  His smile was infectious, his kindness, boundless and his love for his family and friends immeasurable.  He had an innate ability to bring joy to any gathering, his presence filling the room with warmth and positivity.  His passion for weightlifting was typical of his unwavering determination and commitment to excellence.  He pursued his goals, while inspiring others with his dedication and steadfast drive.  Yet, at the same time in pursuit of his own personal success, Mason never hesitated to uplift and support those around him who shared similar aspirations.  His legacy of love, kindness and perseverance will always remain etched in our hearts.  We will forever cherish the memories we shared with Mason and carry his love with us always.
