WWR was invited to conduct services and as in all groups honoring fallen Heroes, all who wish to attend are welcome. Many groups ride in honor.
The pics are in two parts. The first few are Thursday 1/14 arrival escort to Callaghans Mortuary and part two was the final service on Saturday 1/16.
Well I arrived at the Livermore airport late and decided to go to Callaghans for the reception. The fire truck was parked in the middle of the road and had what I'll guess is a 35' flag flying! Looked fine! Thank you Livermore for your show of patriotism!
I was not alone with that intention, we had five flags at the entrance to salute and honor our Hero! Nice welcome!
The procession coming in being led by Police and fire trucks! I stopped taking pics at this time out of respect for the family. The mission was well attended as evidenced by the line of scoots in the procession. Thank you all that ride! Ride safe!
After we formed a flag line and honored our Heroes arrival, the group got together for a debriefing. Great group, must have been at least twenty folks attending.
Part two on Saturday, PGR decided to stage close to the cemetery and make a welcome flag line for the arriving procession.
Some of the scoots ready to head to the cemetery.
Raiders hummer in the rear and the usual suspects visiting prior Panak giving us the agenda. Thank you Brada for taking charge, your and others efforts made this a fine tribute to a passing Hero!
Once at the cemetery, we formed a flag line at the entrance and we almost stretched to the burial site! I didn't do a count and more arrived later, but I'll guess we had about 20 members here and quite a few more came in from Callaghans with the hearse and family. This is looking toward the service site.
Looking towards the entrance. As the service pulled in we started peeling off on both sides and paraded in with the procession and they were all escorted by flying 3 by 5's and it was very effective and impressive. A great show for our fallen Hero!
God Bless Ryan and may he rest in God's loving arms and await our arrival.
