I am pictured here with a few of my biggest supporters in Sebring. As always, the VFW and their Color Guard and special guest speaker and
Sebring Police Officer Mark Lowman.

For some reason the banner carriers in Sebring change half way through the walk! Pictured here is Debbie Galchick, My grandma Christina McClure, who comes every year from Texas to walk, my adopted papa, Kenny Flowers and my adopted aunt, Kelly Springer

Rick Mirenzi & The Veteran's Connection has been really great to me since I began holding Freedom Walks. He's a great speaker and friend.
Mount Union College For the past 3 years, a bus of students from Mount Union College have come to support, honor and remember the events of 9/11. Thanks to all the people at Mount Union for participating.
The End
Thanks to everyone in Sebring who were truly dedicated and supportive of the Freedom Walk. I wanted to start a tradition and continue the walks every year, but due to lack of support and enthusiasm, that will no longer be something I am able to do. To all who look forward every year and who are deeply touched by the 9/11 walks, please feel free to join me in Lake Milton in showing honor, support and rememberance of 9/11 & our troops!
