We had a great 5.32 Mile walk today. Our walk was in Sparta TN today. We walked part of Hwy 84 and then onto Doran Road. We walked to his grave at the New Blue Springs Cemetery. It was a beautiful day for the walk. I want to thank my friend Robert for walking with us today and helping us honor this hero. It was amazing.
