We will set up a wall of flags across the street from the Keever Funeral Chapel at 1:30 Pm to honor the arrival of family and friends. After the chapel service we will also provide a flag escort to the cemetery and provide a wall of flags to the cemetery services. Fortunately for us the parking area is covered by massive trees, some reprieve from the heat.

Ennis Police Department has given us their blessings and will allow us to arrive in a single procession so we will need several road guards to control intersection for the short trip to the funeral home.

Bring your flags and prayers for this family and friends of this fallen Hero

Never forget our purpose TO HONOR AND RESPECT OUR FALLEN HEROS AND FAMILY
