The family of Arnold Jerome Hall, 77, has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to attend the military honors of their loved one as he makes his final journey. It will be our honor to do so.
Arnold served from December 30, 1965 to October 31, 1969 in the US Navy. While serving, he achieved the National Defense Service Medal, Vietnam Service Medal, and the Vietnam Campaign with Device. Arnold was honorably discharged as an E-3.
After Arnold served his Country, he worked as a mechanic and in property management and maintenance. When he wasn’t working you would find him woodworking. Sadly, arthritis crippled Arnold’s hands but not before he built a beautiful podium for a pastor of a church in Anza; in which they still use to this day. He was also known for making wooden wishing wells to give to friends.
Arnold is survived by son, Steven; daughter, Jaime; and grandson Eric. Arnold will truly be missed by all those who knew him.

Do not follow where the path may lead...Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. – Courage
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 Ride Captain (RC). 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.
