The family of Donald Lee Newman, age 60, has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be there to honor their Hero for his funeral service and military honors. We are privileged to do so.
Donald Newman enlisted in the US Army on February 1, 1977 and served as a Surveyor in Panama, he was honorably discharged on September 13, 1979 at the rank of Specialist (SPC).
After servicing his country in the Military, Donald worked as a Truck Driver during his civilian career. In his off time he loved all activities involving the outdoors. He loved to camp, hike, he loved boating, dirt bikes, and especially the beach. He always loved doing these things with his family and teaching his children how to do all the activities. Donald was also a big Angels Baseball fan.
Donald is survived by his loving wife Catherine, children Casey Scott, Joshua Newman, Katiellen Romo, and Cheyenne Newman, and 2 grandchildren.
NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring this Military Veteran.

You do not have to be a Veteran or a motorcycle rider to attend this mission. Everyone is 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.
