Broussard is the president of Blue Star Mothers of Louisiana, a group with sons or daughters currently serving in the U.S. military, while Gold Star families have lost an offspring in the service of their country.
"You Gold Star mothers have shared your stories with me of your sons and daughters, and I've gotten to know them and love them through your stories," Broussard said on Saturday, addressing the Memorial Day Tribute to Gold Star Families held at American Legion Post 69.
"I know one who loves music, one who loved to laugh, one who would light up a room when he entered, one who loved all things LSU, one whose favorite meal was beef tips with angel hair pasta and one whose boy was his heart and soul.
"You've taught me so much about courage, grace and unconditional love.""
