My walk today was dedicated in honor of :
Army Veteran Theron W. Cox, Age 29 of Crossville, TN.
Died Dec. 9, 1957
He served in the Army with the rank of SGT during the Korean War.
He was killed in a car accident on Dec 9, 1957 on the old Obed River bridge just before Cracker Barrel on 127 North.
He worked in the coal mines and was loved and well respected by the community.
He had two daughters, Willa and Debbie
We had a great 13.49 Mile walk today. The weather was beautiful. To honor SGT Cox I walked out to his grave at the Fredonia Cemetery. On the way out I stopped at the Obed River bridge and placed a cross in his honor and had a moment of silence. I met his daughter Willa at the cemetery. I want to thank everyone who honked, waved, and saluted in helping me honor this hero. We had 293 Honks today. Thank you !
Let us never forget Army Veteran Theron W. Cox !
