The family of John Condon has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be present to honor this Hero for his service to his country. It will be our privilege to do so.
John served in the US Army from 1969 to 1975. He was stationed in Germany during the Vietnam War. For his service he received the Marksman and National Defense Service Medals.
Pastor Al Peragg, Legion Rider Chaplain of Post 15 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota served with John in the Army. Pastor Al will be flying in from South Dakota to officiate the service for his friend.

For those interested, and all are welcome, we will be accompanying the hero and his family from the church services to his final resting place.
