In
Honor of SSGT Danial Morris
Killed
in the line of Duty on November 26th 2006
This
event is also to
help raise
the
remaining moneys for Danial's Bust

Operation
Never Forget
works out the costs of the Bust
but
come to find out it's up to Family to provide the necessary moneys
for
the pedestal to set it upon so:
Daniel's
Family was still lacking funds
(for the base) of the bronze bust of SSGT. Daniel Morris.
They
have been working hard to raise the needed funds so we all did our
best to help them out,
Not
to mention it was another chance to vist / meet Daniel's family and
show them that Daniel as well as them will not be forgotten.
|
We
met at In the end this event just like the last one was a great success as it helped raise over $2,300.00 and riders of the 40som scooters had a great time doing it. |

TN3 had been
designated to handle the Hartford Welcome Center but unfortunately
the folks that could have handled this obligation either have to work
or are out of town working the Hurricane disaster. At this time
we are not sure who will be filling in for us but we were told they
have it handled so if any of you can be there to support them for
this great event please do so.
If any TN-3
members can support this event,
please
