Dear Chiefs Podcast Turning Loss into Love: A Police Widow’s Story
“I love being a fire wife, I love being a first responder wife. Ultimately, it is what shattered my world but at the same time is rebuilding it.”
- Gracie Parrish Miller
Gracie Parrish Miller joined Audra & Chelsi, fellow fire wives and hosts of the Dear Chiefs Podcast, to discuss her story of first responder loss along with first responder marriage. She discusses regret, differences between being a police and a fire wife, and her desire to build a community within the first responder community through her non-profit, The Shelter Foundation.
“From New York to California, Wisconsin to Florida, I have had couples reach out to save their marriage. I want them to know someone has their back.” - Gracie Parrish Miller
The Shelter Foundation stands in the gap for First Responder marriages and seeks to offer financial support so that couples can go to counseling and attend marriage retreats without the financial burden.
