Their son Justin lost his life in Iraq, but his dog made it out and back home to Justin’s family. That’s when something special happened.

At one point, Hero wandered off and took a stroll in the backyard. All of a sudden, the clouds broke and a light began to solidify in a beam directly down on Hero — a kind of vertical halo.
