*************************************************************


It is with a sad heart that I have to tell you that we've lost a Brother. I've been trying to contact Mrs. Houck all week, and when I got home from Deltona this evening I had a phone message from her asking if we would be able to ride for her husband Mike this Saturday, 11/04/06. There's going to be a Memorial Service at 2:00PM and a 6 mile ride afterward to a friend's house for a celebration of Mike's life. She is requesting that we take part in any part of this that we can.
Please post here if you'll be able to make this mission. I know this is really short notice, but I'd appreciate it if we could honor this widow's request.

*************************************************************

Houck, Michael Dion, 45, of Spring Hill, died Thursday (Oct. 26, 2006) at Halifax Memorial Hospital, Daytona Beach, as the result of a motorcycle accident. Born in New Brunswik, N.J., he came here 38 years ago from East Brunswick, N.J. He was a truck driver for Keys Concrete and a member of the Patriot Guard Riders. He was a former coach for the Shady Hills Little League. Survivors include his wife of 21 years, Julie A.; a son, Michael Richard Houck, Spring Hill; a daughter, Janet Lynn, White Plains, N.Y; three sisters, Patrice Schadt, Tarpon Springs, Shelley Murrell, Hudson, and Tracey Davis, Starke; 10 nephews; and six nieces.

From the panhandle of Florida our deepest condolances to the family members and PGR Brothers and Sisters.  We stand shoulder to shoulder next to some of the finest people in the world.  It's an honor and a priviledge to know them. The loss of one is felt by all.

I offer my sincerest condolences to the family and friends of this fine American Patriot. It is sad when we lose a service member to conflict and it is even worse to lose a brother. I regret that I will not be able to make this mission due to a previous commitment but I will be thinking of the family's.
