The family of Pfc Erick Ramos Ramirez, age 24, and the US Marine Corps have invited the Patriot Guard Riders to accompany their Hero for his journey from the funeral home to the airport as he makes his way home to Guatemala where he was born and raised.
Pfc Ramirez was serving with the Marine Corps at MCAGCC in Twentynine-Palms when he sadly passed away. He served several years in the Marine Corps including time deployed to the middle east. He proudly served and will be missed by all who knew him.
