Ladies & Gentlemen of the PGR:
We have been invited by the family of JB Parker,71,US Army Veteran and his wife Donna, to honor him with a flag line at his funeral and burial. Their daughter, Cheryl Mathis, advised me JB passed away on 4 March and then her step-mom, Donna, passed away on March 9th. Both of their services will be at the same time, but the family has requested the Patriot Guard Riders because her dad was so proud of his service to his country.
We will be presenting a flagline at the Dahl-McVickers Funeral Home in Kelso, a 5 man missing man formation with the procession and a flagline at the the graveside services held at Cowlitz View Memorial Gardens.
MISSION DATE: Friday, 19 March 2010 1230 hrs
STAGING LOCATION: Old Safeway Parking lot (just north of McDonalds,across from Shari's) South Kelso Drive (I-5 exit 39, east on Allen Street, right on South Kelso Drive), Kelso, WA
SCHEDULE: 1045 hrs - Riders arrive & sign-in 1105 hrs - Briefing 1115 hrs - KSU 1130 hrs - Flag line in place service location 1230 hrs - Service begins
The ride from staging to the service location (Dahl-McVickers Funeral Home 301 Cowlitz Way, Kelso, WA) is approximately 2 miles.
Once the service begins, the flag line will will break down and move to Cowlitz View Memorial Gardens and the missing man formation will remain for the procession.(Approx 1400)

I would like to offer my sincere condolences to the family and friends of J. B. Parker, 71, USA Veteran. Your service and sacrifices will not be forgotten. Thank you for protecting the freedom of our country. You will always be remembered as a "TRUE AMERICAN HERO". Rest easy, Soldier
To those I love and to those who loved me: When I am gone, release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do. You must not tie yourself to me with tears Be thankful for our beautiful years.
I gave to you my love you can only guess, How much you gave to me in happiness, I thank you for the love you each have shown, But now it's time I traveled alone.
So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must. Then let your grief be comforted by trust. It's only for a time that we must part So, bless the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away, for life goes on So if you need me, call and I will come. Though you can't see or touch me, I'll be near All my love around you soft and clear And then, when you must come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile and say, "Welcome Home"

Thank you is just not enough; remember that only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you; Jesus Christ and the American Soldier. One chose to die for your soul, the other for your freedom!

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."

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.
