Fallen Hero
Primerica representative Susan Price of Riverview, FL, knows what it’s like to lose a loved one. Her son, Gunnery Sergeant Aaron Michael Kenefick, USMC was killed in an ambush in Afghanistan on September 8, 2009.
Susan’s son enlisted in the Marine Corps after his junior year at Roswell High School in Roswell, GA, because he wanted to make a difference in the world.
Although Susan now resides in the Tampa area, she was asked by the town of Roswell, GA, to participate in an honor ceremony during Memorial weekend.
Though the loss of any loved one is tough, the loss of a child is devastating. Luckily for Susan, she discovered Primerica.
“Primerica has added joy and light back into my life,” says Susan. “After God and my family, Primerica gives me new purpose. This new endeavor is my something special to rebuild my new beginnings.
“The people I’ve met through Primerica have been people of the highest caliber. They have dreams that no one can take away from them and an uncommon spirit and zest for life.”
And now through Primerica, Susan can make a difference in others’ lives just like her son Aaron did. She can help educate families about their finances, and help them get the term life insurance coverage they need in case the unthinkable happens to them, just like it happened to her son.
“I believe that my future with Primerica will enhance the lives of many,” Susan enthuses.

Thank you for your son, Aaron. We are all truly blessed to have our military men and women protect us and help keep us free. Freedom isn’t Free, and we will not forget the ultimate sacrifice your family has given to help keep us that way. May god bless you and your family, and we will always remember. We both served in the military, and understand the great sacrifice in which you gave. Thank you.
Thank you. Now you rest with the Lord
Dear Susan,
I also want to express my gratitude to you and your family. I am very grateful to anyone who wears a uniform in the defense of this nation and our freedom.
I am proud to work with one of the few companies that will help take care of a family when someone makes the ultimate sacrifice for that defense.
Your son wanted to make a difference – and did! Now you are doing the same. May the Lord bless you with peace, contentment and great success in your endeavors.

Susan,
Thanks for sharing your son with our country. His love of God, family and his country will not be forgotten. I am emotional as I see your information because of a family reunion we held 2 years ago. At that reunion, our theme was to honor the family members who has served our country. It gave me a deeper appreciation of those who give their lives for our freedoms in this world. May God bless your family as you continue your journey. Lives will be touched through your son that you would never have known. Sergeant Kenefick has left a mark in this world for others to embrace. Love to you all.

Susan,
Your son represents what is good in America. Being a Marine & a PFS representative, I know the similarities between what Marines believe and what we believe in Primerica. That is liberating people who need freedom. This company and the Marine Corps stands for what is REAL. Thats what attracted me to this company.
You are an amazingly strong woman. May you be blessed.

Susan,
Your son GySgt Aaron Michael Kenefick has truely made a difference in this world and will continue to inspire many to stand and fight for what they believe in. Honor, Courage & Commitment is what drives the Marine Corps and as a former Marine, I see the same foundations here in Primerica. I am proud to have been a part of Aaron’s Marine Corps family, as well as a part of your Primerica family. May the Lord continue to give you strength and courage. God Bless you.

There is no way the government/country can truly compensate those who serve in the armed forces for all that is sacraficed day to day. There is also no way to adequately thank you enough for a son such as you raised. But, with all that is in me I offer my sincerest gratitude for the service of your son, GySgt Aaron Michael Kenefick.
With pride and honor I salute you, your family and Gunny Kenefick.
God Bless you all,
