Our walk today was dedicated in honor of:
Navy Veteran Michael Wilford Normile III, Age 57 of Oak Ridge, TN.
Died Feb. 14, 2025
Michael was born in New Jersey on May 22, 1967. Michael was a loving father, husband, and brother. Michael was the type of friend who would give you the shirt off his back and not ask anything in return. He devoted his time into helping anyone and everyone he could.
Michael served in the Navy from 01/03/1985 until 6/10/1994 where he achieved the rank ADAN, Aviation Machinist’s Mate Airman.
It was a great honor to walk 11.85 Miles with Navy Veteran Michael Wilford Normile III. We walked by Holiday Hills Lake and then made a stop by CCHS to see the Navy Blue Angel Aircraft. We then headed out Miller Bypass and stopped in at the American Legion. We then worked our way back to town and stopped in at the Veterans Memorial Park. Our next stop was the Crossville City Cemetery where we visited several of our Fallen Brothers. We then made our way to 127 and made a quick stop in at Burger King before heading home. I want to thank everyone who honked, waved, and saluted in helping me honor this hero today. It was amazing. We had 447 honks today. Thank you.
Navy Veteran Michael Wilford Normile III will not be forgotten !
