## Caption

This Independence Day, we celebrate the values that define our nation — freedom, perseverance and unity.

Capt. Ronald Forrester ’69, a Texas A&M graduate and Marine aviator, embodied those values through a story that spans generations.

In this inspiring tribute, his daughter Karoni Forrester '96 shares how her family's journey reflects not just Aggie values — but the enduring American spirit.

As we honor America’s birthday, we’re reminded of the strength found in service, community and never giving up hope.
