The family of LeJuin Curtis Edwards has invited the Patriot Guard Riders (PGR) to attend the Military Honors of their loved one as he makes his final journey. It will be our honor to do so.

LeJuin “LC” was born in Los Angeles on 30 September 1948.

“LC” was in the Army from 1968 to 1970 serving in Vietnam. His awards/citations included the National Defense Service Medal, Marksmanship Badge with M14 Bar, Sharpshooter Marksmanship
Badge with M-16 Bar, Vietnam Service Medal, Vietnam Campaign Service Medal, and 2 Overseas Service Bars. “LC” was honorably discharged as an SP4(E-4) from Fort Lewis, Washington. 

“LC” loved spending time with family. He also loved to travel, attend concerts and festivals, and taking pictures. He also spent a lot of time listening to music on his computer.

“LC” is survived by his wife Billie and six children. He also leaves behind three brothers, one sister, seven grandchildren, and his beloved dog Coco.

NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring this Military Veteran. For those interested, and all PGR members are welcome, we will be accompanying the hero and his family from the family residence to his final resting place. Please see the timetable if you would like to participate. For those who would rather go directly to the cemetery, we will meet you there.

If you cannot accompany this Hero please consider meeting us at the entrance of the Cemetery with a flag line as the hero arrives.

NOTE: Please observe the latest “COVID-19” restrictions.

You do not have to be a Veteran or a motorcycle rider to attend this mission. All PGR members are welcome. We encourage those who do not ride to attend in your car. If this will be your first mission go to the initial staging area and you will be briefed there by the R/C (Ride Captain). Dress for motorcycle riding or dress casually if you are driving a cage (car). Please feel free to attend any portion of this mission you can. Please ride/drive safely.

Please remember that our mission is to stand tall and silent, and with honor and respect for our Heroes. No talking, smoking, or cell phone use during the flag line or service. Please keep radios off and engine noise to a minimum. Observe the 15 MPH speed limit. Remember, cemeteries are hallowed ground. Show respect to all who are there, not just the ones we are honoring.
