Our debt to the Heroic men and Valiant women in the service of our country can never be repaid . They have earned our undying gratitude. America will never forget their sacrifices
(President Harry S. Truman)
During these days of many trials and tribulations that our land of the free are facing, let us remember to hold our heads up high in remembrance for those who gave thier life for our freedom and those that are still in harms way for this cause. Pray for the brokenhearted and proclaim victory for those who are held captive. Lord, You are the light of the world and we declare You to be Lord over every nation. We know your light shines in darkness and the darkness does not always comprehend, but we also know You light will always prevail. Amen.

Our thoughts are with you all on this day
Sending healing hugz to the family
Proud to stand for those who have fought for us.
Passenger pegs up for a fallen brother....
Valkyrie n Viking
A Biker Funeral
Sunday morning early comes
This sweltering summer's day;
Chrome and coffee polished off
As bike and rider wake,
And rumble off to clubhouse for
A changing of the brew;
Black vests in formation--fast
and tight--a loud tribute.
Iron horses, hundreds strong,
Come thund'ring through the gate;
Sleeping souls on notice, fallen
Biker nears his fate.
A mile of gleaming metal lines
The circle and the park;
Out of saddles, boots hit brick
And make for chapel's heart.
Members of the Club stand post,
Proud brothers in the wind;
Shaded eyes the tears disguise,
And loss they feel within.
Friends and family pay respects
To biker and his mate;
Praises made and prayers raised,
Blues legends resonate.
Final words and kisses, then
The pipes' Amazing Grace;
Souls of bike and rider seek
Eternal resting place.
Sunday morning early comes
This sweltering summer's day;
One more rider, Heaven bound,
Roars through the Pearly Gates.

| Thank you Norman Weir for fighting for our freedom and allowing us the benefits of living in this wonderful country. Without people like you I couldn't enjoy my life and the freedoms that I have. God bless you for risking your life to give all of us these pleasures we sometimes take for granted. I will be honored to stand for you on October 12, 2008 and give you my respects. It's a terribly small token, but a heartfelt one for everything you have done for all of us. My condolences to Mr. Weir's family and a thank you for allowing us to stand for him. |

Thank you for my freedom Mr Weir. May you rest in peace.
“Some people’s lives can truly make a difference however long or short their lives on earth. They give the gifts of kindness and of caring. They sow the seeds of friendship and self-worth. Some people’s lives are beautiful examples of putting others first, and when they are gone, the lives of those they touched are so much richer, and the love they shared lives on and on.” |
