We are finished.
Many team miles walked in a rainy 20 hours and 14 minutes.
It is in the books and now only a memory until next year.
Until you are there and see the numbers and look at the huge amount of flags that are representative of the lives lost in 12 years, you do not fully comprehend the cost of war.
We have been carried and supported for 11 1/2 years.
But...there are those that are not so fortunate. Their pain is just as real.
I am grateful.
Our family is blessed.
Carry the Load is an experience we should all witness.
It is here we understand the cost of war and the reality of loss.
It is good for children to understand that it is about more than a weekend that officially marks the beginning of summer.
I know that our family will continue to remember....
not just Matt but the thousands and thousands of others that have given so much, and the families who need our support.
"Carry the Load"....we thank you.
"Carry the Load"....we thank you.
