You Could Really Help
This is an unfortunately more common occurrence; an email from Patriot Guard Riders, the folks who honor veterans on the way to their final assignment…
by escorting them to the cemetery.
And assuring that the sacred rite of burial is not disrupted by … those who would not show respect.
Won’t you help.
