FINAL INTINERARY FOR MARINE CPL. ADAM A. GALVEZ
We will pay our final respects and honor for Cpl. Adam A. Galvez on Wednesday, August 30, 2006. The initial staging area will be the extreme northeast corner of the Lowe's Home Center parking lot at 4500 South 500 west, at 11:30 am sharp. Attatching flags, paperwork and final instructions will be given at that location. KSU at 12:15am and we will ride in formation to the Calvary Chapel at 460 West Century Drive, and be lined up parked and ready to greet the Galvez Family when they arrive around 12:45/1:00pm.
The service begins at 2:00pm. Those wishing to attend inside are welcome to do so, but need to be outside and ready to roll when it is time to head for the Utah Veterans Memorial Cemetary at Camp Williams. The entourage will go west on 4500 South to Redwood Road, turn left and continue south bound all the way to the cemetary. Riders with bikes pulling trailers and those riding trikes are asked to ride at the back of the main group for safety reasons. Riders in the main group, except those with trailers or on trikes, will be expected to perfom traffic control duties as needed.
All riders will be required to sign a waiver prior to leaving the initial staging area. Riders are requested to have full tanks. Water is being provided. Riders are reminded they are to conduct themselves in a professional semi-military fashion, with deportment fitting the solemn occasion showing proper respect and honor for our Fallen Hero, Cpl. Adam A Galvez.
Those having questions can call RC Bruce Clements at 550-6040.
RIDE WITH RESPECT, RIDE SAFELY, AND GOD BLESS ALL.

The angels have called another hero home. While where he has gone is a better place for him being there this place that he has left has been dimished. God speed Cpl Galvez and may those same angels protect and comfort his loved ones. What you have layed on the alter of freedom is so great but is not and will never be forgotten. And a humble thankyou from everyone his and your sacrifice protects. I will be grateful to be able to honor you.

A simple verse for this hero:

Soar now like an eagle in the sky, as over all you’ve known you fly,
Soar up and into the light, Heaven’s gate is now in sight

Enter the fulfillment of your belief, where there is no sorrow or grief,
Safe now from all that harms, rest in God’s loving arms.
