Description

Frog Fuel Patriot Series is a Memorial Roast Series that is very personal to me and my family. The idea grew from the Memorial Roast we created to honor my son, Kevin Ebbert. Kevin was a Navy SEAL killed in Afghanistan on November 24, 2012. Please read about Kevin on his Page.

I have received so many wonderful notes from folks who purchased Frog Fuel in Kevin’s honor. I have met many other Gold Star parents whose Navy SEAL sons were lost. Remembering our lost loved ones keeps them alive and helps a grieving parent continue forward. Many of these parents, spouses, and siblings support the memory of their heroes through volunteer work and by supporting individual foundations and memorial funds. Talking with many of them, it was clear that all of us wanted to keep our heroes’ memories alive and make a positive difference as a group. From those conversations, Frog Fuel Patriot Series was born.

100% of the net proceeds from every bag of Frog Fuel Patriot Series Koffee is donated to the Navy SEAL Foundation. The Navy SEAL Foundation provides immediate and ongoing support and assistance to the Naval Special Warfare community and its families. For more info, please visit navysealfoundation.org.

Each man honored here is remembered by their families, friends and teammates. They gave their lives as Navy SEALs in the line of duty, caring for their teammates, for the love of their families and communities. Thank you for reading about them and keeping their memories alive. Thank you for your purchase and the support it provides to the families of these heroes through the Navy SEAL Foundation.

SO2 Robert Bryan Guzzo

January 3, 1979 – November 12, 2019

Robert Bryan Guzzo was born on January 3rd, 1979 in San Diego, California into a military family with both his parents serving in the U. S. Navy. Known as Rob, he graduated from Portsmouth High School, in Portsmouth, Rhode Island in 1997 and State University (SUNY) of Cortland in 2002. He enlisted in the U.S. Navy under the SEAL Program and left for Basic Training in the Fall of 2003. Rob graduated BUD/s with class 251 and received his Trident in May 2004. Rob was assigned to SEAL Team Five as a Communicator and was deployed to Ramadi, Iraq in 2006/2007 during which time Ramadi was a hotbed of violent, active combat. Upon his return from deployment Rob displayed significant signs of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). His symptoms continued to progress until Rob was overwhelmed, depleted of hope, and succumbed to his invisible wounds of war on Veteran’s Day 2012.

Rob was blessed with an infectious smile and a warm, loving personality. He loved his family and friends immensely, and that love was returned tenfold. Often described as the “life of the party”, Rob had the unique ability to make everyone he met feel as though they were the most important person in his life at that exact moment. Rob loved to make people laugh and could lighten even the direst of situations with a joke or smile. Rob was a stellar athlete in both high school and college playing football, hockey, and baseball. He rarely saw obstacles in achieving his goals. Rob is deeply missed by his family and friends every day.

Rob’s story is superbly told in an episode of the History Channel’s the Warfighters, A Warrior’s Battle: The Story of Rob Guzzo. The Rob Guzzo Memorial Facebook Page can also be viewed at: https://www.facebook.com/RobGuzzoMemorial/
