When one bleeds, we all bleed, When one is taken from us, we all feel the empty void.
In the deepest part of every true patriots heart, is a pure positive energy that so truly desires to let your family know that your loss is also our loss. I know this is not always something that can be explained by a few simple written words no matter how hard I try to use my words to embrace you in this time of your family heart ache.
With Our Deepest Regret, And Our Highest Respectable Humble Regard, We openly shed more than just tears with you. Our heart aches knowing your feeling an aching void. Our heart ache is truly in honor felt for your loved one. It will be an honor and privilege for the Trophy Club Texas Bikers to stand tall, proud, respectful, silent and mourn in silence even at a distance from the state of Texas and continue to show our support to a heart broken family, state and nation.

Bob, come south on I-5 to the I-205 junction. Continue south on I-205 until you cross the Columbia River. Take the Airport exit, the first exit in Oregon. Turn left on Airport Way to Glen Widing Rd. (there's a Shari's on the left). Turn left on Glen Widing and continue about a third of a mile until you come to Home Depot. We should be in the left hand (southwest) corner of the parking lot.

**********UPDATE********
The Escort for Ssgt Ron Paulsen will be from the PDX to Evergreen Gardens. That is approx 2 miles North of the I-205 bridge. It will be a very short ride, but a very important one.

It is very difficult to go back and make a brand new start.
But you can always start from now and make a brand new ending.

Phase 1 went off as close to perfect as could be. 34 bikes escorted Staff Sgt. Paulsen from the Portland International Airport, to Evergreen Memorial Gardens. A finer group of people would not be found tonight. Too many people to thank, and not enough memory to name them. They know who they are. A special thanks to the family for allowing us to honor Ron this way, and also to American Legion Post 14, Vancouver WA, for their Honor Guard.
This mission will continue with Phase II on Monday.
