SGW Donates Synthetic Turf to Wounded Warrior Veteran

GILBERT, Ariz., March 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Synthetic Grass Warehouse donated American-made TigerTurf Diamond Pro Fescue artificial grass to the new home of Sgt. First Class Cory Remsburg, U.S. Army Ranger and Arizona native. In the span of one day, the synthetic turf was installed in Sergeant Remsburg's front lawn and backyard by East Valley-based landscaping company Accent Landscaping.

"This event was a great opportunity to give back to our troops and be a part of something special," said Accent Landscaping owner Scott Williamson. "It was amazing to see the community come together and make an impact for Sergeant Remsburg and his family."

While deployed in Afghanistan, Sergeant Remsburg and his platoon suffered a devastating roadside bomb. The IED left Remsburg with severe head injuries and rendered him comatose for three months. Through Jared Allen Homes for Wounded Warriors, Remsburg received a specially designed house that meets all of his needs.

President Obama made an unplanned stop after his visit with the Phoenix-based Veteran's Affairs hospital, according to a New York Times article.

"The greatest honor of my life is serving as commander in chief of the greatest military the world's ever known," Mr. Obama told the press. "The 'never give up, never give in' attitude was the kind of thing that keeps me going."

Synthetic Grass Warehouse co-owner Victor Lanfranco reserves a special commitment to foundations that improve the lives of United States veterans. As a Vietnam era veteran, Lanfranco wholeheartedly dedicates a portion of his business to those in the armed services.

"It is an honor and a privilege to be put in a position where we can help this American hero," said Lanfranco. "We never turn our backs on our heroes."
