I am going to be at this mission.  I'm a "cager" - I used to have the little burgundy Scion xA, but am now driving a red Toyota Matrix.  I'll bring my flag!

Proud of and thankful to my grandfathers (Navy and Marines) for serving in WW II, my Dad (Navy), my uncles (Army, Air Force and Navy), and my father-in-law (Navy - Korea) for their service.

Tom, Theresa and the family of CPL Thomas L. Hilbert - thank you for allowing us the honor of being at your side this week. I don't think there is any more difficult thing on earth that could be faced, than the loss of son. Thomas' sacrifice is appreciated by a grateful nation, and he will never be forgotten. Thank you for opening your home to us and may God grant you the comfort that can only come from Him.

Glen, my Brother, my Friend. I rode 343 miles this week in support of this Mission and I know you rode more. You were with the family almost every night since Monday and they honestly believe that God sent them an angel in a leather vest to help them through this difficult time. Thank you for your leadership and the gift of yourself that you gave to the Hilbert's this week.

Very respectfully,
Rick

We had an awsome turnout in Midlothian for Cpl. Thomas Layton Hilbert. We had in excess of one hundred bikes and four cages. The family sends thanks to all and I thank all of you for the help in accomplishing this task. The Red hats and Jimmy Jones were awsome. Thanks to Rick Crabb for the help the entire week. Glen Carlisle.

I would like convey my deepest condolences to the family and friends of this American hero who stood tall for their homeland. I know this is a very sad time in your lives but remember you knew a hero first hand the rest of us just get to hear about them. Please know that your loved one is now serving in the Army of our Lord and Savior in heaven and the Lord said if I go to prepare a place for you,and if I go and prepare a place for you I will come again and recieve you unto myself that where I am there you may be also. Know that it says in the Bible in 2nd Corinthians 5:8 ,We are confident I say, willing rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord. I pray that our LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST will bring all of you comfort for we know it is us left behind here on earth that suffer, for our loved ones are in HEAVEN with GOD and he will not allow them to suffer again as they have paid the ultimate price so as to allow us left here to enjoy the freedom we have here in America.No one can ever say that your loved one isn't a hero they were willing to serve when so many aren't or feel that they don't want to. I would like you to know that not just me but a country full of Americans are free because of the sacrifice they made in the name of freedom. May God Bless each and everyone of you

Please accept my sincere condolences and appreciation for your son, CPL Thomas L. Hilbert's service to his country!  He made a promise to his country and I will honor his promise by living the promise of "WE Will Never Forget!"

Your son is a Hero and I am personally gratefully for his ultimate sacrifice!  May your days improve and the pain be washed away knowing that he is with God!  If there is anything you ever need don't hesitate to ask!

Glen and Rick,  GREAT JOB!  Thanks for leading us and for all the time you put into supporting the families of our Fallen Heroes!  It is a pleasure to serve the families under your leadership!
