The family of Raymond Michel Girard have invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be with them as their hero is laid to rest.  It is our honor to be in attendance.

Raymond proudly served in the United States Air Force.

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 Mortuary and services 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.
