my show, Carey Peña Reports , to talk about how she keeps her husband’s legacy alive through interviews with first responders and through her work with the 100 Club of Arizona. “It’s truly a privilege,” she told me. “I’ve been given this opportunity to help other families. I hope every day when I meet new families that I can inspire them and give them hope.” After Harrolle left the Inspired Media 360 studio, I got to thinking again about the word hero. Angela Harrolle is a hero in my eyes. At 33, she became a widow. With grace and resilience she raised the couple’s daughter, Addie, then 4, and son, Justice, then 2. And she has gone on to help hundreds, if not thousands, of families of first responders through the 100 Club and, now, through The Call . The 100 Club of Arizona also puts a lot of focus on a program called Bulletproof ( bulletproof.org ), a confidential and anonymous resource that provides law enforcement professionals and their families with mental health and wellness initiatives and additional awareness tools. Harrolle says hers is truly a life of gratitude. Even though she has walked through unspeakable tragedy, she says gratitude encompasses her whole being. I asked Harrolle to name her favorite quote and she cites the late Sen. John McCain: “ Nothing in life is more liberating than to fight for a cause larger than yourself, something that encompasses you but is not defined by your existence alone .” In precisely this way, Harrolle has answered the call.
