We had a great 2.42 Mile walk. We parked at the Pilot at the Gorndonsville exit and walked to his grave in the Gordonsville Cemetery and then walked back. We decided not to take the interstate back and took a back road. We got a few miles down the road and we noticed this bridge that was dedicated to Army PVT Fred D. House. Was so amazing. I want to thank my friend Robert for walking with us today and I also want to thank all those that honked, waved, and saluted in helping us honor this hero. We had 10 honks. Thank you.
