We will be staging in the church parking lot at 11:30am. Maximum turnout is requested, as this is a last minute mission. The family was SOOOOO impressed with our escort last week they have asked us to stand for this hero.
If you have any questions, please call me at 719.390.3245.
For the C/S contingent, we will be leaving Denny's parking lot at Academy and I-25 at 9:45 in the morning. We will NOT be going up I-25, but up CO-83.
Please make all attempts to attend services for this fallen hero!!!

==================================================================
The escort mission for Sgt. Ryan J. Baum has been tentatively re-scheduled on Friday, 01 Jun 07. I should receive a call from the CAO tomorrow letting us know the time and which carrier will be used. If a passenger airline is used, staging will be at the Fire Station at DIA as we have used before. There is also the possibility of a private carrier being used, which would completely change where we would stage. As soon as I have any information, I will call Kristen and she will post it for me.
This will be an escort mission from Denver International Airport to Parker Funeral Home Inc at 10325 S. Park Glenn Way, Parker, CO, 80138. As of right now, there is not a police escort set up for this mission. We, the PGR, are the escort. We do not have the right to stop traffic in any fashion without a police escort, so please do not attempt to do so. There may not be an RC at this mission, and I will definitely not be able to attend. We also do not know what route they will take to the Funeral Home. Hopefully when I get the call, all questions will be answered, but there is the chance that this mission will simply be following the vehicle that carries Sgt. Baum to Parker.

Just received a message from Brad- he recieved a phone call this morning that informed him that it's a 99% chance that this escort mission will not happen until tomorrow.
Please keep an eye on this thread in the event that this hero arrives tonight.
If you will be away from your computer and would like a call in the event that this escort mission will happen tonight, please PM me or call 719.390.3245.
Again, please keep an eye on this thread as nothing is set in stone and is subject to change!

Another Day, Another Battle, Another Defender has bravely given their hopes, their dreams, their lives for us.
Sgt. Baum, you have given far more than I have and you have sacrificed much more than I have. In your Brave stand you have given everything that you have and that you are! I THANK YOU!! I THANK YOUR FAMILY!!
Today as the dawn turned to dusk, the bugle sounded, and the flag was lowered to honor your sacrifice!
I found my right hand raisiing to meet the corner of my brow and I stood for several moments, ever so quietly, thanking you with all that I had to offer at that one single moment in time...I SALUTED YOU! I REMEMBERED YOU!

I'm just going home.
Quiet-like, slip away-
I'll be going home.
It's not far, just close by;

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. |
