Fueled By The Fallen is a non-profit organization developed to both honor and pay tribute to the United States service members who lost their lives fighting for the freedom of others. A mobile memorial has been created in the form of the Memorial Race Car Team. Funds will be raised in conjunction with the team and will be given to the families who have lost sons, daughters, husbands, wives and our injured service members from Operation Iraqi Freedom. The mission is to honor those service members, give back to their families and create awareness of those who made the ultimate sacrifice to defend our freedom.

Dear Kevyn,

I met you this morning after the parade in Estes Park when I was looking for our son's name on your car (Recon Sgt. Nicholas R. Walsh).

Nick was killed by a sniper on May 26, 2007 in Fallujah - the same day one of his younger brothers graduated from high school.

I just want you to know that your kind and gentle act of taking my hand and walking with me to find Nick's name on your car will never be forgotten by me. Thank you for caring about me, my family, our son and all of the fallen Marines.
Here is a photo of Nick, his wife, Julie and their sons Triston and Tanner. I took this photo a few weeks before Nick deployed April 1. It is the only picture ever taken of the four of them. I send this to you so that you can see how important it is that people like you name them and help others remember them.

These brave Marines are not numbers...they are our sons, fathers, husbands, brothers, grandsons and nephews. They are our boys. They are Nick. Thanks you for all you do. It was a pleasure meeting you today.

Best,
Maggie Walsh







Dear Fueled By The Fallen,

I wish to thank Mr. Kevyn M. Howard and Fueled by the Fallen for assisting my family and I in our time of need. After being wounded in my 3rd tour during my16 years active service, I decided to get out of the military and finish my 20 years as a reservist. I was not prepared for the delay of disability pension or the loss of work due to VA appointments and employer's hesitance to provide the time off without consequences. FBTF helped us when we needed it most! Thank you so much!
