Rest in peace Mac sinise

Thank you Sir, from a Vietnam Vet,

I love how Gary shows his love and gratitude to those who lost their lives and to the families ❤❤❤❤❤

I've been a fan of Gary Sinise for many years, with one of my favorite movies, Apollo 13 he was in. When I started hearing about his involvement with the Wounded Warrior Project with his Foundation, that endeared him to my heart even greater because I come from a family whose men have all been Vets for four generations. Thank you, Gary and Mac, for all you do to help our unsung heroes.

Thank you, shared.

Gary, Cristin, and GSF Team: ALL of you are heroes to the heroes.

I am so sad that his son and wife were so sick. Then he lost his son, dealt with his wife’s cancer too. Their pain also Gary pain. It takes a while to recover from the pain. It does not totally go away. I lost my son when he was 39. He was married, and it seems the mom who has known him the longest; is less relevant. He was having trouble breathing. It was for several weeks. He went too and emergency room, where the doctor said he probably, at his age, just influenza. They only did an EKG, and the routine tests. Not long after that he was at work, and he JOKINGLY said “my chest hurts. I probably am going to die.” Not log after that day, he got up early, and went downstairs. He took asthma medicine (thinking it was just his asthma,) and then just died. His wife came down to go to work, and found him. After that point, many of the young people, just did not understand that parents have pain too. Some, actually said so. That made it even more difficult. I know your and your wife’s pain. So sorry.

The music produced, all the work and dedication is, and continues to be inspiring. ❤

What an Amazing Legacy. Thank you, Mr. Sinise for sharing this important part of your life with us.. The many lives touched by music...Forever grateful for this... May you find peace and continue to heal❤❤

Training your body for exercise is beneficial yet training yourself for God blessings are bestowed in the book of Timothy.

Gary Sinise is a hero, and so sad to know about the loss of his son who seemed like a special young man. Thank you so much and God bless the Sinise family!

I struggled watching this to the very end. I'm so grateful that I got spend time with Mac and it made this episode that much more special. Thank you Gary for sharing his story and preserving his legacy. Cristin, well done my friend. Can't wait for future episodes.

I am so sorry...

Semper Fi., awesome

I don't even know how to speak to this Gary. Arctic Circles, Shenandoah, Penguin Dance, Cloud Surfing are just phenomenal. I didn't know anything about Mac and the struggles you, Moira, and your family faced until Mac passed away in January. I've been a fan of the Lt. Dan Band, your work for our service people and 1st responders, and the Gary Sinise Foundation for some time. I have been mesmerized for the last hour in 40 minutes by this podcast and want to thank you and Kristen for sharing all this with us. Though this is just a glimpse, you guys really shined a wonderful light on who Mac was. Please know you, your family, and everyone at the Gary Sinise Foundation are in my prayers and I will continue to make the little contribution I can in donations and spreading the word of your unwavering and outstanding work. God bless you.

Amazing, Mac, was talented and incredible special young man . Thank You, for sharing Mac’s story, it made me very teary eye. Gary Sinise, and staff you are all amazing. God Bless. Have a great day.

We love you Gary from a grateful Vet🇺🇸

Really enjoyed listening to this, it must have been very hard to cope with Mac's / Moira's illnesses at the time. Best wishes.

This dude needs a medal.

Thank you Sir. You are a great American 🇺🇸

This is wonderful! Thank you to everyone who works so hard to make this happen, and to everyone who participates. I love Walt Disney World, too. This is so special. Amazing.

Thank you so much for your support of our veterans and their families 🎉

I’m sitting here in tears, what a wonderful human this man is.

I was blessed to hear the light hearted story about Mr. Sinise and Souring in Orlando. Ask him about his wall if you ever get a chance.

GARY SINISE FOR PRESIDENT ! Sounds very good after all he did for the veterans and their families. In a different way, he can do the same for this nation. THINK ABOUT IT.

Gary you are a True American Patriot !! And so are you Travis, thank you for your Service and Sacrifice !!! I'm crying as I write this, you all are amazing 🇺🇲✌️🇺🇲😍

Well done, Gary. You are making a difference.

That's why we donate to the Gary Sinies Foundation and let the organization decide where the gift goes...from a U.S. Army veteran.

Especially parents serve overseas on ships and I know what it's like and I did 2 half years with the royal Australian navy cadets and 2mnths on submarine Oberon class submarine Oberon class submarine hmas ovens submarine Oberon class submarine final voyage around Australia in 1995

Well done, Sir. You and your foundation are making a difference.

Great humanitarian you bring warm smiles and warm the hearts of the children of the soldiers.
