As part of the Hometown Heroes Banner Program, presented by AdventHealth , we honor local hero Steven R. Gonzalez.
His family shares this message: Just after graduating from college, Steve enlisted in the US Air Force in 1971. He is very proud of his service, in spite of the service connected illnesses he is suffering from to this day. He also had a few “close calls” while serving overseas. We are very thankful to God for bringing him home safely. He says, “I’d do it all over again”. We are very proud of him! This is a picture of the family he adores and is very devoted to: His two children, four grandchildren, his wife, and himself. He is OUR HERO!!
