I just got off the phone with some of the American Legion folks and they are planning on attending also. Bill Morton was an American Legion Rider and his wish was to be escorted home by bikes. I hope to see you there to show our support.
Thanks, Kelly |

Once again I was amazed at the dedication of the Patriot Guard Riders, we had a great turnout for Bill Morton. The guys helped me so much that it made the ride easy. The Family was overjoyed at us (the PGR) being there for them and could not have been nicer.
The LEO's were fantastic. even with the heavy traffic in areas they kept everything going smoothly.
You guys and gals are the best! Thank you all for giving me the pleasure of being a part of this today.
