Post family, I got a tough call yesterday from a member’s wife. She shared that her husband died by su***de on October 5, 2025.

There’s no perfect thing to say in moments like this. What I do know is the holidays can turn grief up loud, and a lot of folks carry more than anyone realizes. If you’re hurting, or you’re worried about a buddy, please don’t sit with it alone.

Reach out. Call someone. Message me. Knock on a door. We’d rather hear from you at 2 a.m. than hear about you after the fact.

If you need immediate help, the Veterans Crisis Line is always there:
• Call 988, then press 1
• Text 838255
• Chat online through the Veterans Crisis Line site ([Veterans Crisis Line][1])

You do not have to be enrolled in VA health care or benefits to use it, and it’s for Veterans and the people who love them too. ([Veterans Crisis Line][1])

If someone is in immediate danger, call 911.

Please keep this family in your thoughts and prayers. And please, check on each other. A simple you good can matter more than you think.
