Awesome story. ::USA::

I've notified family in St. Louis. Maybe they'll assist or at least show up to respect the fallen.

Just a reminder to all. The Patriot Guard Riders does much the same thing as noted in the story (putting up flags, etc). If you'd like to join, you don't need to be a vet. You don't need to own a bike. It's not about you or your transportation. It's about respect for the vets who have sacrificed for this country! ::USA::

And it's free to join. ::thumbsup::

Yeah, good link Alan, I have to look into that more.

And from the link I posted - "As requested, donations in lieu of flowers can be made to the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society."

One of several vet org's I perennially contribute to - links for them:

I have given to others over the years too, but those above are my regulars, more at this link -

  Closure for the family.

Downside: The story is from June 13. I was a little late with my requests.
