Ride Update for Wed. August 30, 2006
Hi Everyone,
I am having a hard time sending this ride update on the ride update e-mail list with this wireless server. So it is just on "Gary's Blog" for now.
We are dedicating this years Torches Across America ride to two New York fire fighters that died in the line of duty battling a third alarm fire August, 27, 2006. Their names are Lt. Howard J. Carpluk Jr. and Michael C. Reily.
Lt. Howard J. Carpluk was a 20 year veteran of the FDNY and worked at Engine Company 42 in the Bronx.
Fire Fighter Michael C. Reily just graduated from the FDNY academy on July 6, 2006 and worked at Engine Company 75 in the Bronx.
All of us with Torches Across America give our condolences to their families.
This is the update Mike Mohn has sent me for the morning of September 11, 2006:
We will meet at the chapel at 830am and begin to line the road from the chapel with our motorcycles. the service will start at 9am and then bell ringing ceremony after first biker blessing.
Tattoo Bob and his group will arrive about 1pm at the chapel area. We will go to crash site and then back to the chapel for a second 4pm blessing/devotional.
Keep all this in prayer as we wish to be a blessing and not take away from the real reason we are here-to honor and minister to those families who were affected by the 9-11 tragedies.
This is a go, any updates I will notify before 9-1 via e-mails-after that contact the chapel direct.
Terylene Fritz, sent me this a few weeks ago and I forgot to send it to you all. Great thing for us to do.
Just say ""THANKS""
How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one.
If you go to the web site at www.letssaythanks. com you can pick out a thank you card and the Xerox Corporation will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq . You can’’’’t pick out who gets it, but it will go to some member of the armed services. It is FREE and it only takes a second. Wouldn’’’’t it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these?
Have a great day.
