Tunnel to Towers Pays Off Mortgages for Two Fallen Soldiers' Kansas City-Area Families

Two Gold Star families in the Kansas City area woke up Wednesday owning their homes outright. The Tunnel to Towers Foundation said it paid off the mortgages on the Leavenworth, Kansas, home of the family of Army Chief Warrant Officer 4 William Dickinson and the Lee's Summit, Missouri, home of the family of Army Sergeant Matthew Gonzales, marking Veterans Day with a gift aimed at easing the financial burden left behind after each soldier's death.
