Jonathan and Jennifer Cobb are bringing a remarkable story to Aiken - a 4,000-mile trek across the country that ended in June.
The couple will appear at Talatha Baptist Church on Sunday at 11 a.m., describing their Walk Across America trip as a way to honor their late daughter Julia, who died of cancer in 2013. Her parents have been raising funds toward pediatric cancer research through the JuCan Foundation, as in Julia Can.
A minister now living in Houston, Texas, Jonathan is the son of the Rev. David and Dena Cobb, and grew up in New Ellenton.
"They have been a major inspiration in their faith," said Kara Carter, a family friend.
Talatha Baptist Church is located at 361 Talatha Church Road.
