Trucker’s Crossfit Workout
Crossfit often dedicates WOD’s (Workout of the Day) to fallen soldiers or those who passed away from a tough disease. This was also the case with Trucker. Crossfit Invictus dedicated a WOD to him, calling it the Trucker Dukes Hero WOD.
They Understood Each Other
One of the families that Trucker’s family met and bonded with was the VanSlyke family, whose son Atticus also battled cancer. They met his parents Melisa and Krys and his two sisters. They were able to meet Atticus before he sadly lost his battle with Neuroblastoma at the age of 2. The two families were able to help keep one another strong through these extraordinarily difficult times for both of them. The VanaSlykes helped inspire Trucker’s family to take the #TruckerRidesWithUs tour.
