STRINGHAM, IRVING RAY
SUNDAHL, JOHN C
SWENSON, LYMAN K
THOMAS, HARRY
TURLEY, GRANT
These names were done as part of a hike up Squaw Peak in Provo, Utah. It was a beautiful hike, and I was able to concentrate on the sacrifices and efforts that these men made. The hike was 7 miles, but I only used 6 names from our wall. The last name that I hiked for was Delynne Peay, a much loved dance instructor at BYU. I was in her class for over a year and performed on her Spring tour team. I was inspired, motivated, encouraged, and loved by her. She helped me to find a genuine happiness in dancing, which served me well in a few dark patches of my life that I went through later. I had to include her in the hike, and it worked out incredibly that with her counting as a 7th mile, the 6 names that I hiked for made my mile count hit an even 100. I'm almost halfway through the 210 names on the wall and can't wait to get out and run the rest.
