Show Notes

On this week’s episode of Coffee with Closers, we commemorate the 20th Anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks on our nation with two special guests. Karen Guenther is the President, Founder and CEO of Semper Fi & America’s Fund, a nonprofit military service organization founded in 2004 by military spouses and is dedicated to assisting combat wounded, critically ill and injured service members, veterans, and military families, by providing vital financial and program support. She is joined by Marine Corps Veteran Josh Bleill. Called to service after the 9/11 attacks, Josh was severely injured in Fallujah, Iraq, in 2006 after a roadside bomb hit his vehicle. He recalls that harrowing day and his long journey to recovery and new beginnings.
