PATRIOT GUARDS

To add to Lola's post........for those of you who don't know: the Patriot Guards are veterans and other motorcycle riders who provide support and guard duty for the families at the funerals of military personnel.

I got this from their website:

Our main mission is to attend the funeral services of fallen American heroes as invited guests of the family. Each mission we undertake has two basic objectives.

1. Show our sincere respect for our fallen heroes, their families, and their communities.

2. Shield the mourning family and their friends from interruptions created by any protestor or group of protestors.

We accomplish the latter through strictly legal and non-violent means.

I found some pics on daytondailynews.com of the Patriot Guards at the Lauterbach funeral. Can't make out Ray but glad to know he was in there!






Good job, brother!

Non-political News

Dear All,

This is NOT a political announcement in any way, shape or form. Just wanted to say how proud I am of Ray--he has been a member of the Patriot Guard Riders for awhile now but was not able to attend any of their functions due to schedule or location until this past weekend. He was one of the more than one hundred who had attended Maria Lauterbach's funeral on Saturday.
Amelia is doing better in her new school environment. She hasn't been there long but every day is a step in the right direction.
That's the scoop from here. CU all later.
