Supporters of TAPS have nothing but high respect for event coordinators and pioneer founders of this organization that supports survivors of military actions.

Tragedy Assistance Program For Survivors held its seventh annual Celebrity Classic, June 22-24, benefitting military family survivors coordinated by two of Arapahoe County’s most beloved people, Bob and Lynne Cottrell. The couple has been with the Washington based organization since the beginning.  Colorado has been a hub for the TAPS organization, which is located close to Ft. Carson military base where many have suffered combat casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan.
