Our walk today was dedicated in honor of :
Army SPC Robert Donevski, Age 19 of Sun City, AZ.
KIA Jan. 16, 2010
SPC Donevski was assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 12th Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, Fort Carson, Colo.
Spc. Robert Donevski of Sun City, Arizona attended Sunrise Mountain High School, before he enlisted in the United States Army. His passions were boxing, fishing, the outdoors, and spending time with family and friends. His awards include: National Defense Service Medal, Afghanistan Campaign Medal w/ Campaign Star, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, Army Service Ribbon, NATO Medal and the Combat Infantry Badge.
He died at age 19 in Abad, Afghanistan, of wounds suffered when insurgents attacked his unit using small arms fire.
It was an honor to walk 12.45 Miles with Army SPC Robert Donevski. We first walked by Holiday Hills Lake and then we headed towards town where we stopped at the Veterans Memorial Park and read some names of our Fallen Brothers on the Memorial Wall. We then headed north on 127. We turned on Northside Drive and headed back towards the house. I want to thank everyone who honked, waved, and saluted. We had 496 honks. It was amazing. Thank you.
Army SPC Robert Donevski will not be forgotten !
