   putting his heart into this one: He's one in the crowd of many who are   
   stepping off on the 4th of October near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, for   
   the American Heart Association Heart Walk. While Eddie's fellow club   
   members in the Skyview Amateur Radio Society, K3MJW, will be on  the   
   air as special event station K3H - Kilo Three Heart - Eddie and his   
   team of hams will be putting their best feet forward in memory of his   
   wife of 28 years. Connie Misiewicz KB3YYC, became a Silent Key last   
   March as a result of congenital heart disease. She was known throughout   
   Skywarn as a devoted storm spotter and county net control station.  She   
   was also a familiar voice with the Breezeshooters of Western   
   Pennsylvania Club, which encourages activity on 10 meters.   
      
   To Eddie, the three-mile walk he is taking to honor his late wife is   
   the walk of a lifetime. It is also a way to channel his grief into   
   something positive through a public heart-health awareness campaign,   
   with other area hams joining him on the trek. The American Heart   
   Association has designed the event to celebrate survivors of heart   
   disease and stroke.   
      
   Meanwhile, Eddie has also joined another team - a team of lifesavers   
   -to ensure there can be plenty more survivors in the years to come: He   
   recently became an American Heart Association certified CPR instructor.   
   He told Newsline it's the right thing to do. He's sure of it - in   
   hisheart.

   newscast at arnewsline.org
