One of our finest from WW II passed and PGR was asked to ride. About 20 members did and I decided to meet the group at GGNC in San Bruno.

And my friend Sloop Dog that got smacked by a truck was there! Great to see you mobile and looking great! God Bless! Don N, Dave E and Slick John were there along with our RC for the escort to the grave site,
Lynn Tross in her Hummer that is well decorated.

When I arrived, Dave said they are already here and at the burial site, and this was an hour early, and the gov doesn't normally work this way, BUT, we jumped on our scoots and went to check it out...

We wandered in the general area, and the hummer came up behind us... The front desk thought that was the escort, but it was just Lynn getting prepared, so back to the front gate we went.

Doug - Sgtmaj rode ahead of the group to tell us they were about to arrive and we were all set to head to the burial site. Kimo pulled up and I told him to follow the hummer, and off we went.




Lynn's Hummer.


Sloop Dog and Dave clowning around, hiding my sweet Ruby! GBG Don and Daves bike on the right.


I shot a few pics at the service, I don't normally do this but as there was no evidence of a casket, I did. I hope no one is upset.


To my left, first is Hardass, he got his 'nic by sliding down 152 in the early am in Gilroy, moistire and garlic leaves, very slick combination! He and Gary R, who also rode were by my side in lane 4 of 680 when I totaled my first sweet Ruby. Thank you for being there!


The firing squad.


The other side of the gathering. I was a good service to honor one of our greatest generations. God Bless family and friends during this time of passing. Thank you for asking PGR to be there.
