The family of Steven Teitzel 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.
Steven was born on September 6, 1949 and entered into Eternal Rest on September 19, 2018.
Steven served in the U.S. Army from October 26, 1966 to May 5, 1970. He was in the 101st Airborne and served in Vietnam. His awards include the Vietnam Campaign Medal, Vietnam Service Medal, Army Commendation Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Purple Heart, and Bronze Star. He achieved the rank of Corporal at the time of his Honorable discharge.
After the military Steven worked as a correctional officer for the Trinity County (Redding) Sherriff's Department.
His favorite hobby was riding his motorcycle.
Steven is survived by his ex-wife and best friend Lisa.

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.
