Thank you for your service PFC King and for being the true representation of a HERO. Your family should be proud of your bravery in the face of a tremendous burden of cancer. Having to deal with family members and friends going through this it is difficult to put into words how much strength they must have themselves. Your dedication to your Country and fellow comrades will not be forgotten.
May God comfort you now and may you find solace in Him as you need.

'No Greater Love is this that a man is willing to lay down his life for another.' Only two men were willing to sacrifice their lives for us-Jesus Christ and the American Soldier. Neither of which can ever fully be repaid.
Thank you for your Service and my Freedoms. Your sacrifices will never go unnoticed. I am grateful to live in a country made up of volunteers like you. Your choice to protect our Nation and put your self on the line can never be repaid.

May this brave young man who served OUR country so faithfully rest in eternal peace. He was a very dedicated soldier to the very last and as you can see from the pictures that are posted, he was PROUD to wear the ARMY uniform. He was a true American Patriot and I pray that his family can find peace in the memories they have of him. We are lucky to have had people like him serve this great nation.

| Today was another hot muggy day, but once again everyone did an outstanding job showing respect to the family and friends of PFC. Justin King, I hope everyone made it home without getting caught in the rain, I barely made it before it let loose. The SC/RC's did a great job. |

Justin King and family,
It is because of you that I was able to ride today, to show my respect and honor to you, one of our Countries Heroes. I was able to ride on any road, and in the rain, as freely as I wished. It is because of you that I was able to not only ride home, but to ride farthur to see and hold my 3 day old Grandson, who sleeps, eats, cries ( and you know what else babies do) in freedom, and without fear.
PFC Justin King, your courageous display of Patriotism, Honor, Pride, Respect and Desire, has set a standard that I challenge all Americans to meet.
Mr. and Mrs King, thank you for the invitation and the privelage to show my respect and honor for your son, yourselves and community. I wish you God speed in these challenging times.
Thanks to the communities and LEO's of Robinson and Oblong for your support and assistance.
To all the support volunteers..............what you do is vitally important to mission accomplishment, please continue to do what you can, when you can, Thank You!
Thanks to the local riders for joining us, to be a part of us, as fellow Americans.
And again, to Joe Tracy-Road Captain, for doing the legwork for this mission, while I was present for the birth of our first Grandchild.
All the other riders, your not last for any particular reason. You know why you do what you do. It hardens my pride and patriotism every time, hats off.................................
Thanks to my wife and family, and to the spouses and families of the riders and supporters, for standing with us, as we do what we do, for the Heroes of America!
Nuff said for now,
SlingBlade

To all the PGR members in attendance , thank you for being there to do what we do. To the PGR members that could not be there we thank you also, because we know Justin was in your hearts that day, and that you would have been there if you could.

Dear Bob and Pam King,
Thank you for allowing the Patriot Guard Riders to honor your son. It was a privilege to stand in honor of your son and our great American hero. He was a brave young man who accepted the crosses he was given. He, as well as your family, will always remain in our thoughts and prayers.
He will not be forgotten.
May God bless you and continue to heal your broken hearts. |

==============================
When a mans heart is full of deceit it burns up, dies and a dark shadow falls over his soul. From the ashes of a once great man has risen a curse, a wrong that must be righted. We look to the skies for a vindicator, someone to strike fear into the black hearts of the same men who created him. The battle between good and evil has begun. Against an army of shadows comes the Dark Warrior, the purveyor of good, with a voice of silence and a mission of justice. - Steve "Sting" Borden |
