In Memoriam
My experience with the Big Apple Run throughout the years has been very touching and life changing. I had the pleasure to run with active military and wounded service members. Hope for the Warriors also had a ceremony to honor numerous service members for their service and sacrifices to their country, and has shown over and over again its selflessness to all military members and their families. They have always gone above and beyond the call of duty, and I would like to personally thank Hope for the Warriors for having me on your dynamic team, and most importantly, being a part of your family.
—SGT George Diaz, USMC (Ret.)
