The family of Ray Richard Landeros has invited the Patriot Guard Riders (PGR) to attend the Military Honors of their loved one as he makes his final journey. It will be our honor to do so.
Ray was born in Los Angeles on 21 March 1936 and entered into Eternal Rest on 29 September 2017 in Palmdale.
Ray, the third of twelve children, attended Woodrow Wilson High School in Long Beach and proudly served his country in the U.S. Army from 1954 to 1956.
Ray was a resident of Riverside County for twenty-three years where he worked as a truck driver but spent most of his life as a plumber as it was a family trade that he learned from his father and uncles.
Ray is survived by his wife Olivia and sons Ray, Michael, Reynaldo and Salvador. He also leaves behind two brothers, seven sisters and two grandchildren.
NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring this Military Veteran. For those interested, and all are welcome, we will be accompanying the hero and his family from the mortuary to his final resting place. Please see the time table if you would like to participate. For those who would rather go directly to the cemetery, we will meet you there.
Time Table for Friday 13 October 2017 1230 – Stage at Akes Family Funeral Home, 9695 Magnolia Ave., Riverside, CA.

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.
