Past Hero's Wishes
My name is Angela Hause. I'm the proud mother of two amazing kids. Alexis age 13 and Cody age 10. We lost their father SSGT Brian Paul Hause on 10-23-08 while he was stationed in Ballad. It's been a rough few years for us with moving to a new state, new school and the daily challenge of raising kids without their father. Even with all they have been through my kids are smart, and kind and amazing young people who are so much like their father. Life has not been fair to them and with each year brings new challenges and hardships for them having to grow up without a father. I know vacations cannot fix things but it can bring a smile to their faces and give them some wonderful memories to help when they days aren't filled with many things to be happy about. Time of year does not matter. We have been to Orlando and love it. I would love the opportunity to take my children on a dream vacation to Disney World in Orlando Florida. We got engaged at Disney World so that place holds a special place in my heart. I'm not asking for all just giving some options as anything would be amazing for them and they would love to go to any of those places. Thank you for taking the time to read our story and thank you for helping me to make a wonderful memory for my children.

My name is SGT Aaron Kent. I have three little girls, oldest is 4, 2 and a 5 month old. I missed the oldest being born, and just barely made it back for the last 2. I am missing my oldest daughters first day of kindergarten due to being up at fort Leonard Wood for Advance leaders course. Me and my three friends wish to go to see a Dallas cowboys vs Eagles game with your help if possible. CPL Ross, SGT Arce, and SPC Sigers, All three of us met at fort hood, and have been with each other all through the deployment to Liberia. we all look out for each other and talk about Sports and Fantasy Football to help the day go by. SPC Sigers and his wife were blessed with a beautiful baby boy just a week before we left so that was really hard on him for his first deployment, and my wife was having complications with our daughter during her pregnancy which scared me while I was waiting to get back to her and my girls. But thank god I made it back in time to see the birth of my beautiful daughter Emma.

My name is Roger and I am recently medically retired from the Army on Sept 29 2014. I was severely injured in Eastern, Afghanistan on 23 April 2011 while conducting a night mission leading my Platoon. My Platoon was ambushed and we took heavy casualties and KIA. Being the Platoon Sergeant and having the Medic with me I had seen numerous Soldiers down in front of the enemy position during the intense firefight that was no more than 15 meters apart. Without hesitation myself and my Medic rushed into enemy fire to try and retrieve our men and while only a few meters away I was blown up by a enemy hand grenade. I have been on the road to recovery mentally and physically but it is hard. I have attempted suicide several times and have been impatient trying to live with the guilt of losing my men. I live in isolation and don't get out much. I just thought maybe going to a Tennessee Titans game with my neighbor would be good for a change. We are both big fans of the Titans. He has really helped me with supporting me around the yard, talks about my lose, since he is a senior critical care paramedic and knows what I'm talking about and overall a good friend. Thank you to anyone reading this. We all are inspiration to each other no matter what we do.

Thank You Message from the Hero:
I would like to personally thank all of the great people who have donated to my Hero's Wish. It is because of people like you and VET TIX that keeps us knowing that we are not forgotten. This event was the first one I have been to since being severely injured and losing my men on 22 April 2011. I had one of the best times of my life. I would like for the special people who have donated and VET TIX to know that you have a special place in my heart. My spirit has been lifted, I realized that life doesn't have to be stuck in the house isolated. All of you were apart of this and hopefully it touches your hearts as much as it touched mine. Thank you and may GOD bless you all.

My name is SPC Amado R. Punto Jr. I am currently deployed in Romania. From Aug 2011 to Sept 2012 I had my first deployment and spent time with my family in the Philippines on Apr 2012 during R & R. I went back to Fort Riley on Aug. 2012 and was reassigned to my current unit 165th MCT , 541st Combat Sustainment Support battalion. Before the end of year 2013, my family visas were finally approved and they came to states on Dec 30 2013. After 45 days of being together again I got deployed to Romania from 15 February 2014 until present. My wife and kids were only in the states for a month before I was deployed. My wife, my two sons ages 10 and 13 and daughter 17 are staying now in Oxnard , California. Their only wish at this time is for me to give them a time for family bonding after deployment and they want it in Disneyland in Anaheim. Their wish since their childhood might come through with your support and will really appreciate it with all my heart.

Hello, My name is SPC Timothy Sexton. I have just recently returned home from my first combat deployment to Afghanistan. I am married to my beautiful wife Teesha. While I was gone, 2 of my wife's many wishes included coming home safely to her, and to take her to a Cowboys game. I have fulfilled one of those wishes, and intend to fulfill the second. I wish to attend the Atlanta Falcons @ Dallas Cowboys game on September 27th, 2015. I grew up a Falcons fan, and she grew up a Cowboys fan. Fortunately they are playing each other in the state that we reside! So we are both very excited to get a chance to see them both.

My name is SPC Sisk. I have a wife and 3 amazing kids that are 11,9, and 5. They are my heart and soul. I haven't got to see them much in the last 3 years due to training and deployments and would love to take them to Disney. I always wanted to go there myself when I was little but could never afford it. I think it would be some much needed bonding time after this deployment. My wish is for 5 4-day park hopper passes for Disney World.

I would like to take my wife and children to Disneyland. We had to purchase a car when I got home from deployment because the car we had we didn't trust to drive across country with a trailer, doing this left us with very little money after the down payment and trip across country and moving into our new apartment. Now we live month to month paycheck to paycheck. My daughters both 12 and 4 have been begging to go to Disneyland since I got home! I have a wife and 3 gorgeous children, 2 girls and a boy. Eve is 12, Leigha 4 and Lucas 1! I was hoping to get 5 tickets so that my mother could join us at Disneyland! She hasn't been able to spend much time with the kids because my wife moved back to MI while I was deployed to spend time with her family.

My name is SGT Christopher E Waite. I am currently on my third deployment and my second one in 3 years. Both have been to Afghanistan. The last 3 years have been hard on myself and my family due to the time that I have had to spend away from them serving our great country. With this deployment coming to an end I can not think of a better way to share an experience with them then through a generous donation from Vet Tix. I have always wanted to experience the Brick Yard 400 in Indianapolis, IN even though I live close to the track I have never had the opportunity to watch a race live and in person. I know it would be an experience of a life time, to feel the rumble of the engine of the Nascars as they scream by. Thank you for your time and consideration.

My name is SSgt Kelly Goodman. My kids are HUGE Michael Jackson fans, they love his music so much, even my girls would move around in my belly when I played him around the house. My son knows all his songs. It's just a drive from us and it can be a vacation we can have that's affordable and not over the top. I missed out on Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, their 5th birthday, my anniversary, New years, Valentine's, St Patrick's, and soon to be Easter. My kids haven't been apart from me this long and my kids have actually had a harder time than I thought. It's dad who is usually gone for work (he's military too). We are looking at going to Vegas July 22-26 so any show during that time would be amazing. I just want to thank these kids for their sacrifice, and have a memorable time with them since I missed out on so much, and thank my husband for taking on the task of mom and dad and shuttling them everywhere. We try to bond with our kids through things they love and have a passion for and Michael Jackson's music and talent, and the acrobatics from this show are things our kids love, to see their faces light up with joy and excitement, the freedom they have to do that, reminds me why I love my job and do what I do for them. I'm requesting 5 tickets because it's me, my husband, our 14 year old son, and our twin 5 year old daughters. Thank you for reading our wish.

Thank you so much to Stage 3 Motorsports, Vet Tix and the other donors who made this possible. Seeing Michael Jackson ONE was awesome! Our kids LOVED the music, the acrobats, and the dancing. Seeing their faces light up with smiles and happiness the whole show was rewarding in itself! They even had a hologram of Michael towards the end, and it was a bittersweet realization that he really is gone and this was the closest thing we'd get to see him in concert. We're beyond blessed to have such amazing supporters of military like you guys. I'm forever grateful that I got to take my family somewhere as a thank you for their hard work and support during my deployment. Thank you guys so much!

My name is LT. Timothy Thibault. I live near Boston Ma, and I have been on deployment for 5 months with another 4 months to go. I would like to bring my family to the event. My wife Elaine, two daughters Samantha (22) & Rebecca (16). I have been around auto racing for many years, building race cars, driving cars and even my daughter was racing when she was 9 years old. My wish is to take my family for the weekend at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Nascar Modified Tour all star race on 7/17 & 7/18. Maybe even the Nascar Sprint cup on 7/19. Access to pit area would be awesome. I would love to throw the green flag for the race while in uniform! Have been around auto racing in New England since I was 10 years old.
