We will stage for this mission in the parking lot next to McDonalds at 1809 West Eisenhower ( 6.1 miles west of I-25 and just to the west of the lake), Loveland 80537. Staging time will remain at 8:15, with briefing at 8:30 and KSU to the Church at 8:45. I will be in Loveland much earlier. I'd like an RC to coordinate Denver riders at the Crackerbarrel (120th and I-25) with departure from there at 6:45 please.

At the suggestion of the Loveland PD, we will stage at the parking lot next to McDonalds on Eisenhower/Hwy 34 in Loveland no later than 8:15A now. Briefing will occur at 8:30 and we will be KSU at 8:45 to stage at the Church. Shortly after the service starts, I will designate escort riders to remain behind and participate in the procession to Resthaven. The balance of the PGR will proceed directly to Resthaven to stage for the balance of the memorial. Please participate if you possibly can.

As I get ready to write to you, the words fall away as almost meaningless because of the pain I know you feel. I know, because I have felt that pain.
Know that you are NOT alone on this difficult path. Others are there to help you: reach out and embrace them, for they are offering not only themselves, but sharing with you that little bit of the Almighty that resides in all of us. This offering/sharing is what WILL give you the strength you will need to get thru. Trust me.
Any service related death, whether accident or illness, wounds received or KIA, warrant the Gold Star for the family. Don't let anyone tell you different.
I offer you my services, such as they are. If you want to talk, feel free to get in touch with me thru the PGR messaging. I WILL return your call/message. ANYTIME!
In the meantime know that my wife's and my prayers are with you.

| Our heart felt condolences to the Palomarez family and friends in the loss of Isaac. Thank you for his service to this great country. Our prayers go out to God for you in this time of loss. Isaac served to give us the freedom we now enjoy so much and for that he is one of the GREAT AMERICAN HEROS of the land. God bless your family and friends. Wish I could have shaken his hand and told him thank you myself. God tells us that “Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends.” (John 15:13) As Christ our Lord laid down His life for us that believe in Him for salvation, so your love one has laid down his life for us for our freedom. This act has made him a Super Hero in my heart and I thank-you deeply for this sacrifice made for our freedoms. I pray that God will now bless your lives and help you see how great a thing this is which your loved one has done. The FALLEN MILITARY MEMBER has shown this country his greatest love for country and friends |
