Warrior
The Story Behind the Design
My brother Andrew always wanted to be a Marine. Always wanted to be First Man In-Last Man Out. He was a Warrior.
He lived his dream in April 2014 when he enlisted in the Marine Corps and headed off to MCRD in
San Diego. I was almost 8 at the time. He did some amazing trainings as a Marine. Range Instructor, Scout Swimmer and MCIWS. He was a Tier One Marine and a great encourager and motivator to all who knew him.
He was killed on his motorcycle August 20th, 2017. This Warrior Line is in honor of him. It is also a tribute to all our Service Members and First Responders all over this country who put their lives on the line for us everyday.
The inspiration for these Bible verses came from Andrew. He was an incredible artist and drew all his own tattoos and used these verses in them. On his keychain was Joshua 1:9 and it has become our family verse.
