Special thanks to the families who participated in a special memorial ceremony to remember their loved ones who died by suicide. As the participants walked onto the field at the end of the game, a video was shown to raise awareness about suicide prevention and to share ways to help those whose lives were tragically changed by the loss of their loved one.
