We just ended our 12th Indiana Run For The Fallen.
The best one yet!
The Runners called out names and paid respects to 592 Hoosiers who died serving during GWOT.
I wanted to give out special Shout Out and Thank You’s to the Runners/Volunteers that have been with us since our start in 2015 for their significant dedication to the mission.
Eric Roddy, Frank Murphy, John Reeder, Robert Hammett, Bob Wilburn, Phil Reagon, Mark Justice, Chuck Ross.
Without them we would not be where we’re at today!!
Since 2018 and America’s RFTF, Johnny Butler, and Adam Bennett have increasingly added to their responsibilities to now lead (along with Sara Meadows) the INRFTF.
Please give them your full support!!
They’ve already proven that they will carry on the Mission: To Never Forget and Honor and Remember our military heroes so they are truly not forgotten…
I’m hoping to be in the area for the next year’s Run, but won’t play a role in the INRFTF.
I’m currently still the Indiana Chapter Director as our Committee searches for my replacement.
My plan is to continue to present personalized flags in Central FL and in Central Indiana as needed.
Very special thanks to the families of the fallen who have accepted me into their family.
Hearing many of your hero’s stories has been life changing for me personally, and very dear to my heart.
Thank you for the precious gift of the past INRFTF T-shirts on a quilt.
A very humbling and special gift!
The way I understand it is that Christy Foster and Libby Jet (her daughter) who brought this all together.
I have no idea who else may or may not been involved.
Godspeed
Don
