Red, White, & Boots Gala 2025

We can never fully express the depth of our gratitude when others choose to honor our son and his brothers and sisters-in-arms. This evening was a powerful tribute to America’s fallen heroes. None have given their lives in vain—their legacies live on through organizations like Folds of Honor, who hosted this remarkable event.

The night was both moving and inspiring, raising scholarship funds while saluting the sacrifice of our nation’s heroes. We were deeply honored to attend, thanks to the generous sponsorship of Pipefitters Local 211, and profoundly humbled as Diane Nemecek and her dedicated South Texas Folds of Honor team once again chose to display Matthew’s honor board for all to see as guests entered on the red carpet.
