In 2013 The Board of Trustees of the New Jersey Run for the Fallen formed a committee under the leadership of Gold Star parents Ken and Helen Gurbisz to develop a design, fund and build a monument honoring the sacrifices of those families who have a lost a loved one in defense of our country. The monument to be located on the property of the  New Jersey Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial in Holmdel, New Jersey.

The ultimate goal is to have the monument be a place of remembrance and reflection for everyone but especially those whose loved one made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. We are striving to dedicate the New Jersey Gold Star Family Monument by 2015.
