My brother Gordon and I would like to thank the Patriot Guard Riders who attended my father’s funeral today in New Bedford, MA. Dad was very active in the American Legion, serving as Department Commander in 1982 and headed their national Emblem Sales committee. There would have been a huge contingent there today from all over, but with the gathering restrictions in place it made that impossible. Thanks to the many riders who showed and the Legionnaires who could stand at a distance, the day was still special. It was a gorgeous day and with the breeze blowing the flags looked great flapping in the wind. Thank you again.
