*******************FINAL ITINERARY*********************
STAGING TIME: 1100
LOCATION: Markwood Funeral Home
111 S. Mineral St.
Keyser, WV 26726
304-788-3231
PRE-RIDE BRIEFING: 1130
FLAG LINE: NLT 1145
We will maintain our flag line until commencement of services at 1300, at which time we will break away. Service is anticipated to last between 1 and 1 1/4 hour. We will re-establish our flag line as Mackie is moved to the hearse for the journey to his final rest.
Police escort WILL be provided by Keyser PD. Cemetery is located less than 2 miles from the church.
We will set up a flag line at the cemetery for military graveside rites.
Current weather forecast for Keyser is for temperatures in the mid to upper 30's with a 30% chance of snow (or a 70% chance it won't). Please travel in whatever means you, yourself, are comfortable with. Gary has indicated he will be trailering his ride and make a decision, then, as to whether or not to use 2 wheels for the escort.
Thank you all for your patience AND your attendance tomorrow.
Respects,
Joe

To the family and friends of "Mackie" Paugh, my sincere condolences. Grieve his loss to you here on Earth but celebrate his life and take comfort in knowing he is in a better place and will be at peace. He will long be remembered by the many people whose lives he touched while he was here.
To Mackie, Welcome Home. You will hear those long overdue words as you enter the gates to Heaven, there to sit with God and the Lord Jesus. Your friends and fellow Airmen who have gone before you will be waiting to greet you.
You walked through the Valley of the Shadow of Death and will now dwell in the House of the Lord forever.
God Bless You, Mister Paugh and your friends and family,

To the family, friends and loved ones of Mr. Paugh, his sacrifices and contributions are not forgotten. We extend our condolences to you, and hope you know that there are people who love and support you. God be with you while you mourn.
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you wake in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die!

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Eddie "Mackie" Paugh, USAF Veteran. May God help you though this difficult time and sorrow. He is
one of America's Heroes that will never be forgotten.
Rest Safely and Securely in God's Loving Arms, Eddie.
Going home, going home,
I'm just going home.
Quiet-like, slip away-
I'll be going home.
It's not far, just close by;
Jesus is the Door;
Work all done, laid aside,
Fear and grief no more.
Friends are there, waiting now.
He is waiting, too.
See His smile! See His hand!
He will lead me through.
Morning
Star lights the way;
Restless dream all done;
Shadows gone, break of day,
Life has just begun.
Every tear wiped away,
Pain and sickness gone;
Wide awake there with Him!
Peace goes on and on!
Going home, going home,
I'll be going home.
See the Light! See the Sun!
I'm just going home.
