The family of Dennis Papanic has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to attend his service at RNC for his military honors.  We are honored to accept.

Dennis Papanic enlisted in the USMC on 11-30-68 and was discharged 11-29-74.  Dennis received his Honorable Discharge with the rank of LCPL.  He served a tour in Vietnam.  He was awarded the National Defense Medal and the Vietnam Service Medal.

Dennis re-entered civilian life and was employed by AT&T, GTE, and Verizon as a lineman.  He spent his spare time camping, spending time with his family and watching New York sports teams.  He is said to have a big heart and loved to help others.

Dennis is survived by his sons, Nicholas and David as well as 3 grandsons.
