Our walk today was dedicated in honor of:
Army SSGT Christopher D. Worrell, Age 35 of Virginia Beach, VA.
Died Apr. 22, 2010
SSGT Worrell was assigned to the 702nd Combat Support Battalion, 4th Stryker Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash.
died April 22 in Baghdad of injuries sustained in a noncombat-related incident. He was assigned to Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash. His family said he died while on his third tour of duty in Iraq, where he had been since September.
He had been in the military for 13 years.
We had a great 6.82 Mile walk. We made our first stop at the 9/11 Memorial and then we made our way to the Veterans Memorial Park down town where we read some names on the Memorial Wall. We also found a painted rock their at the Memorial Wall. We then made our way back home. I want to thank everyone that honked, waved, and saluted in helping us honor this hero. We had 198 honks today. Thank you.
Army SSGT Christopher D. Worrell will not be forgotten !
