Today my walk was dedicated in honor of:
Air Force Veteran SSGT Richard John Abels, Age 61 of Celina,OH.
Died Apr 19, 2010
He served in the Vietnam War as an Aircraft Mechanic with the Air Force.
He was awarded the Bronze Star. He was a member of AMVETS Post in Celina and a
member of Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Celina.

We had a great 7.15 Mile walk this morning. We walked to the War Memorial Park down town and read some names and then we walked to the Crossville City Cemetery and visited some of our Fallen Brothers and sisters in Arms. It was nice and sunny. I want to thank all who honked, waved, and saluted in helping me honor this hero.
Air Force Veteran SSGT Richard John Abels will not be forgotten !
So very nice of you . I enjoyed the memory of Rich. One of my besties.
