The entire team hopes to raise
awareness for US Air Force Special Operations (Combat Control and Pararescue). While honoring those who have fallen, this walk is to show that with Air Force Special Operations, you are never forgotten.
Tim is survived by TJ (Timmy Junior),
his 1 1/2 year old son; Will is survived by his daughters Tyler 9 and
Natalie 1; Scott is survived by his daughter Sophia 2 1/2. It is our
honor to help raise support for TJ, Tyler, Natalie, Sophia and all the
other children of our fallen warriors. Through SOWF, these children are
guaranteed to receive a college education and the promise of a bright
future.
