Those up in Northern Illinois...........We have a member of the PGR who lost his brother last night a WWII Vet. He has asked if we could put together a very quick mission for him. Although all the details are not available at this time, it looks like the funeral will take place on Monday May 8th, in the Bolingbrook area. I will be hitting the road shortly heading down to Alton Il for the mission there on Sat. If you think you can be available on this short notice, please send an e-mail to me at wescoot2@aol.com I won't be able to check my e-mails until I return on Sunday, but I will get back with you as soon as further information is available to me. Lets not let this fellow PGR member down.
Respects,
Ed

Patriotism is more than a sentiment; it is a conviction based upon a comprehension of the duties of a citizen and a determination loyally to perform such duties.

My thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Martin and his family. With God's help, may you all find some peace during this tough time. As long a work will allow, I plan to be there. I may have to duck out just before the cemetary, but I will be there - it's an honor to be invited.
I grew up in Bolingbook, am in Lisle now, however, I'm very familiar with the area. There are quite a few places near the Funeral Home that can be used for staging, if need be. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
God bless you all!

Sorry everyone, I just returned home from the Mission in Alton where I did have the opportunity to meet with Terry. He is very appreciative of our efforts to honor his Brother. Because of the short notice, I'm asking that whoever can make it to the Funeral home, please be in Place with flags if at all possible around 8:30am. Because of work I'm a possible to be there myself, however, seeing all those who have already stepped up, I'm sure all will go smoothly. Lets just remember that we are there to pay respects to the Fallen and to the Family, and all will go well. Hopefully, I will see you there, if not, please represent us, as the true Patriot which we are.
Respects,
Ed |
