God bless the Patriot Guard
I can't express very well the emotions I felt when I first heard the story about this latest mission from the Patriot Guard Riders except to say that I still have tears in my eyes hours later. These veterans are real American heroes. God Bless them every one.
The story as reported in the news said that Michael Alan Gare had served as a Corporal in the Marines in Viet Nam.
When authorities found him, they assumed him to be "just some homeless man" who had died on the street. After further checking, they discovered his identity and realized that he was a veteran. Then according to the Patriot Guard Riders website, it was mortician Gregg Walker, who at his own expense, retrieved the remains of Michael Alan Gare from the local coroner.
The Patriot Guard Riders stood in as Michael Alan Gare's family at his funeral today at Riverside National Cemetery, assuring that Michael Alan Gare would receive the military honors and respect all Veterans should receive.
Now the Patriot Guard Riders are on a Pony Express mission from California to Florida carrying the flag from the coffin of Michael Alan Gare to his daughter and Mother in Florida, who had been unable to attend his funeral.
God Bless and Protect These Our American Heroes.
Rest in Peace Michael Alan Gare and thank you for your service to our country.
Thank you for seeing him home! God bless him his family and those who Guard his final Journey!
God Bless
