Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Col. Frank W. Klibbe,Thanks for being one of our heroes. God Bless. And God Bless, The fellow soldiers that stands for us everyday.Thank you for your dedicated service and sacrifice to defend this great nation of ours.

We salute you , My Friend

Final Inspection

The soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now,soldier.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep....
Though I worked a lot of overtime.
When the bills just got too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here, Lord.
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don’t, I’ll understand.
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now,soldier
you’ve borne your burdens well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven’s streets;
you’ve done your time in Hell."

My heartfelt condolences go out to the family of this American Hero. Saying,' thank you for your service' seems
so inadequate, but know that we are forever in your debt Col. Klibbe. God bless you sir.

He is a soldier and a savior and a sword against the darkness, and he is nothing more than the finest, greatest testimony on behalf of the finest, greatest nation ever known.

COL Klibbe,

Thank you for your willingness to defend the United States of America and her freedoms and interests. Your death brings much sorrow and sadness to the hearts and lives of your family, friends, military brothers and sisters, each and every member of the Patriot Guard Riders, and all who truly appreciate their freedom. We are proud of your service and dedication in that which you believed in and fought for. Your mission is complete. You are truly an American hero and the world in which we live is a safer place because of your commitment to freedom. We will now proudly stand for you with honor, dignity, and respect. We pray that you will now rest peacefully in the arms of God. May He provide peace, comfort, and understanding to each life you touched.

Mission Report for Phase One. Staging began at 8:00AM and the Flag Line was set from 9:00AM until 10:15 AM when the service began. The Flag Line was reset at the conclusion of the service at which time family and friends exited the chapel through the Flag Line for a special tribute as our own Deltadog (Tom Fage) honored Col Frank W. Klibbe with a fly over in a WWII era PT-23 which may have been the type of aircraft that the Col learned to fly in. The family has expressed heartfelt appreciation for each member of the PGR who participated in any way today. I would like to add my thanks to each one who helped make today's mission a success.

Mission Brief Phase Two: Staging began at 1:00 pm, at 1:30 pm Two flag bikes went out to escort Col. Klibbe, family, and friends, from Interstate-75 to Florida National Cemetery.
We proceeded to the designated area and set the flag line with 12 flags. The U.S. Airforce Honor Guard did a great job conducting the service, the three round volley was fired, and Taps were sounded. Col. Frank W. Klibbe was secured in his final resting place. God Bless you Col.
Thanks Karrol, and Mark for inviting us to show our respects to your Father.

My thanks to my PGR brothers for honoring this hero today their
