Maj. Jonathan Weaver was an Army officer and he was killed in a traffic
accident last week on his way back home to Leavenworth from leave. He
had just completed the Command and General Staff College and was due to
report to Ft. Riley for 6 weeks of training prior to going to Iraq.
His family has requested the Patriot Guard stand the flag line at
Leavenworth First Presbyterian Church, 407 Walnut (corner of 4th &
Walnut), Leavenworth, KS 66048 on Saturday, July 26th.
Timeline:
8:45am Staging at the church to set the flag line.
9:15am Flag line should be in place, bikes moved
10am-11am Visitation
11am-12pm Funeral
12:15pm Take down the flag line
There will be no funeral procession/escort. You may come at any time
during this window and the PGR flag line will not move. Please look for
Patriot Guard bike parking within a couple block area of the church and
walk to flag line.
Feel free to relieve one of your PGR brothers or sisters on the line as
you arrive or share flags as necessary. We appreciate what you do and
so do the family and friends of Maj. Weaver.
Thank you for your service,

our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them
to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our
