MISSION COMPLETE

Thank you to the family of Lance Corporal Manoukian for inviting us to share in your grief and sorrow. I hope that our presence brought you some degree of comfort in this trying time. I hope that we did not overstay our welcome at the cemetery, but we were all greatly moved by your private ceremony. Thank you to all that were able to attend today’s mission. We had a respectable turnout considering that the weather forecast was bleak and that there was also a mission the day before. As I would expect, you fantastic people came through to show your respect and gratitude to this fallen warrior. Thank you to Reverend Gordon Ainsworth and Debbie of the Highland Park Baptist Church for your kind support and for working with us for parking and facilities. Thank you to Terry Desmond and his staff at A.J. Desmond Funeral Home for your cooperation in working with us to make this mission run smoothly.

Once again, my heartfelt thanks and appreciation to my PGR Family for all of your support. You are the greatest bunch of people I have ever had the pleasure to be associated with..

LOVE TO ALL AND RIDE SAFE,

JACK

  It was an honor to stand for Lance Corporal Manoukian. I hope in some small way, we were able to show his friends and family, that they do not stand alone in their time of grieving. While we go about our 'normal' lives, let us never forget the sacrifice these young soldiers and their families make, to allow us those lives............God bless.
