We had a great 11.24 Mile walk today. We walked up town to the War Memorial Park before heading to the Crossville City Cemetery. We then headed north on Cook road. We walked past Stone Memorial High School and headed back towards town on Genesis road. We cut over to Old Jamestown highway and then headed home. I want to thank everyone that honked, waved and saluted in helping me honor this hero. We had an amazing 271 honks today. Thank You
Army SGT Billy Joel Greavu will not be forgotten !
