The family of Jay Lem Mullen has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be present to honor this Hero for his service to our country. It will be our privilege to do so.
Jay Mullen served in the United States Army 1950 to 1952 during the Korean war and was in country for a few months until he was transferred to Germany in a support role. He was Honorably Discharged at the rank of Corporal.
After discharge, Jay Mullen worked for Southern California Gas Co. for 37 years until he retired. He loved doing home projects, traveling, camping, and fishing with his two children Debbie Slagle and Larry Mullen and many grand children and great grand children. Jay was preceded in death by his soul mate Wilma Jean Mullen 19 years ago.
Jay was very active in the PGR, as is his son Larry.
