Today our walk was dedicated in honor of:

Air Force Veteran LaVerne A. Spriggs, Age 65 of Palm Bay, FL.
Died Oct. 2, 2015

TSGT US Air Force, Persian Gulf
Meritorious Service Medal

Survived by his wife, Julie, brother John, daughters: Anita and Amy, and 6 grandchildren, Dustyn, Dani, Eric, Haley, Megan and Dylan.

We had a great 6.88 Mile walk today. Our first stop was the 9/11 Memorial and then we walked up main street to the Veterans Memorial Park where we read several names of our Fallen Brothers. We then walked to Lantana and then took West Ave back towards Sparta Drive and then home. I want to thank everyone who honked, waved, and saluted in helping me honor this hero. Enjoyed a chat with couple of young men over by Tracker Supply. Today we had 381 honks. It was amazing. Thank you

Air Force Veteran LaVerne A. Spriggs will not be forgotten !
