INTERNMENT WILL BE AT THE EVERGREEN CEMETERY AT 5505 NORTHFIELD RD. IN BEDFORD HEIGHTS OHIO.
I AM BEING ASSISTED BY THE CLEVELAND POLICE DEPARTMENT WITH THIS SET UP.
**************************************************************************
Itinerary change!
Follow previous directions to the Lee Rd. exit from I-480. Turn south (also the same direction) and PASS the Marathon station at Raymond and Lee (former rally point). Another .3 miles and you'll be at Libby (SR17) and Lee Rds. Head for the video store on the southeast corner. Nice big lot and nobody home. This stretch of road is very heavily travelled, both side roads and Interstates, and you'll see a LOT of construction in this area. Plan accordingly
Grainger Rd. Exit turns into Libby Rd and is also Rt. 17. This video store is South of the Marathon previously posted. |
| *****************************************************************************
Kevin Horkan, username "kevinh803" is assisting me and will be the Temporary Ride Captain doing scouting for us. He is in communication with me, and is attempting to locate a sheltered stage point. However, at this time, the stage point is as posted.
ALWAYS, THE NIGHT BEFORE A MISSION, VIEW THE MISSION THREAD FOR ANY LAST MINUTE CHANGES.
The King family will feel our love and support, this Mission of Respect will be done in the spirit of America and over 60,000 Patriot Guard Riders.
