We had a great 8.15 Mile walk this morning. We walked to the American Legion and read some names on their memorial and then went by the hospital and stopped up town at the War Memorial Park. I want to thank everyone who honked, waved, and saluted in helping me honor this hero. We had 104 honks this morning. Thank You.
Navy BM2 Hubert Tuck Jr, will not be forgotten !
It’s great what you do. Great American.
Wow, thank you Tim! This is so beautiful what you are doing.
