To the men and women who showed up with flags and honor for my father, THANK YOU.

You helped honor my father and I cannot thank you enough. So many men were there and it was, quite frankly, overwhelming. Thank you for what you did for him and what you do for veterans everywhere.

Kenneth Mac Caraway

I want to thank Beth, our mission coordinator, Billy Morgan, our Ride Captain, and the Patriot Guard Riders from Apple Valley, Ridgecrest, and Tehachapi, California for honoring my brother-in-law at his escort and interment in Bakersfield National Cemetery. I have ridden many missions with the PGR and all are accomplished with great respect and love for the families involved. In this instance, the Caraway family simply could not stop talking about the PGR, their love for Country, the respect demonstrated at the interment, their professionalism and the outpouring of love they provided to our entire family. I am confident my brother in law was looking down from Heaven and would want all to know he is most proud of the riders, the sacrifice they made in some very hot weather, the honor provided to him, and the love and compassion demonstrated to my sister and family. May God Bless all of you and watch over you on every mission. You are doing God’s work on every mission. Semper Fi PGR!!!!

Charles JL Gallegos

What you do is truly amazing and well respected. I could not be more happy to send him off without you’re support.

Your presence at the church and at Bear Creek Cemetery was a special tribute to Kathryn and her family.

Ronald L. Harper

My heart sends you all a great big Thank you for making my husband’s burial a proud one. I know he would be smiling with a wonderful escort. He was a huge fan of the flag and you made his trip to the cemetery a proud one for our family.

SMSgt. Phillip Pienta Ret.

Back in February, I invited the PGR to my father’s funeral in Niceville, Fl. I have ridden many a mission with the PGR prior. I know it is our honor as members to ride. But know that I am grateful and thankful from the bottom of my heart to have the support of my fellow members. Nothing takes away the loss or the pain, but your presence makes it more bearable.

With respect, thanks and admiration,

David Pienta

It was an extremely cold day as we laid my Father to rest and to have you all there to pay your respects was very beautiful and was very much appreciated.

My husband was a Captain on Berryhill Fire Department. He passed away on March 13th, 2018. The Patriot Guard came to his memorial service and presented me a plaque. I cannot thank them enough for being there that day. It meant the world to me and my sons.
