| First, Thanks to Joe for getting all this posted as I was at work. However, I talked with Libby, Rex's wife, and she is so thankful we are participating in her beloved husband's services. She is really appreciative of anything we can do for her. As for now, the intinerary is pretty well set. Keep an eye on this thread for any unforeseen developments. Thanks for all you do. Ride safe, Ron J. |

| Another member of the "Forgotten War" has passed on. The war may be forgotten by some, but those who fought it should never be forgotten. Thank you, Rex Rawley, for your service to America, and may God grant your loved ones an extra measure of comfort and strength at this most difficult time. |

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Rex Rawley, Navy, Korean War Veteran. May God help you though this difficult time and sorrow. He is
one of America's Heroes that will NEVER be forgotten.
Rest Safely and Securely in God's Loving Arms, Rex.
Going home, going home,
I'm just going home.
Quiet-like, slip away-
I'll be going home.
It's not far, just close by;
Jesus is the Door;
Work all done, laid aside,
Fear and grief no more.
Friends are there, waiting now.
He is waiting, too.
See His smile! See His hand!
He will lead me through.
Morning
Star lights the way;
Restless dream all done;
Shadows gone, break of day,
Life has just begun.
Every tear wiped away,
Pain and sickness gone;
Wide awake there with Him!
Peace goes on and on!
Going home, going home,
I'll be going home.
See the Light! See the Sun!
I'm just going home.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you: 1. Jesus Christ. 2. The American G.I. One died for your soul, the other for your Freedom.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

| **************MISSION COMPLETE*********** We arrived at the funeral home with 10 riders present. There, we were met by Rex's wife, Libby, and the rest of the family. They were so thankful for our participation. After the services, we proceeded about 10 miles to the cemetery where we stood our flag line, until Rex's family departed.
Rex, rest easy now. Your tour is done.
Many thanks to Kepner's Funeral Home. You guys always make it so easy for us. Thank you. Thanks also go out to the WV State Police and Valley Grove Police for escorting us. Thanks for supporting us.
Barry and all you guys from PA. We always appreciate everything you do for us. Thanks to all you guys.
Libby, God be with you as you go forward in the coming days.
