Good read . Tim is what I call a man on a mission. What started out as someone walking to improve his health as grown into something way bigger.Walking to honor our fallen veterans was not the plan when he started out. Over time it has grown into that.Tim has walked over 9,000 miles thats coast to coast 3 times.At an average of 20 minutes per mile.He doesnt just get out and walk,he also gets the background info of who he is walking for/with .An enormous amount of time is put into what he does.He walks in just about every weather condition .Worn out quite a number of shoes along the way. I started walking with him after I moved to Tennessee.Tim cannot drive so I offered to drive him to other towns . We have been welcomed both here in Crossville and Cumberland and the other towns we have gone too .Southern hospitality is alive and well in Tennessee. People show an interest and stop and ask about what he does. We have met a few well know people along the way . John Schneider(Bo Duke),Aaron Tippin who took us up on an honor flight and Lee Greenwood who told us keep it up and when we go to other towns to seek out the media and spread the word . Tim has been on local radio WECO Wartburg,TN with morning dj Brad Byrd as well as the local Knoxville,TN tv stations.Tim asks when you see him out walking to honk your horn. Its not to say Hi to him , the honk is a way of saying thank you to the veteran he is walking for/with. One thing I’ve learned is it’s more than walking for/with a soldier theres more than a name and rank theres a real persons story with it. Its a person who signed up or was drafted that was willing to serve this country and put their life on the line to defend it.Never forget that and say their names. We live in the greatest country in the world,its not perfect but its the best place there is.A huge thank you goes out to all service members past,present and future.A huge thank you goes out to my friend Tim French for doing what he does. Proud to call you my friend.
I’ve walked with Tim a number of times recently and couldn’t wait to get my hands on his book. It was worth the wait. By the time I started reading it, I couldn’t put it down. It was truly an easy read and compelled me to keep reading right through to the very last name of the last Veteran you had listed that you had walked for at the end of the book. I laughed with it. I cried with it (multiple times). It hit home with me several times too. Tim–You have me inspired to get back on track with my own mission that I had stalled out on 6 months ago. I just couldn’t put that book down. Thank you ever so very much Tim for writing it, moving me so drastically & inspiring me again to give to others in my own way!
An extremely inspirational read! The compassion and strength Tim has shows in every step he takes. I take pride in knowing Tim after meeting him and walking with him to honor my Uncle Doug Huskey. I commend Tim in all he has accomplished without really even realizing what his mission has accomplished and will forever continue in honoring those who served for our freedom. Your an inspiration to all and your encouraging words of strength, loyalty and honor will remain in our hearts and the true spirit of perserverance does not go unnoticed. A very well written and inspirering book – can’t wait to see if there’s a second edition!! Thank you, Tim, for all you do for our heroes who have gone before us and are still with us.
