The family of Aniceto Trujillo De Casas, 94, 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.
Aniceto was born on 13 May 1927 and entered into Eternal Rest on 15 March 2022.
Aniceto served in the US Army from 8 October 1950 to 18 September 1953. He served as a Sergeant in the US Army for 3 years, during the Korean War. He earned the Korean Service Medal w/2 Bronze Service Stars, the United Nations Service Medal, and the National Defense Service Medal.
After his military service, Aniceto was a machinist and retired from General Dynamics. He liked to tinker on anything and everything...from watches to lawn mowers. He could fix just about anything. He used to spend his mornings at a local bakery drinking coffee and chatting with the owner and some friends. In his final years, he spent mornings drinking coffee with his buddies at McDonald’s.
Aniceto is survived by a daughter Maria, 4 grandchildren, 9 great-grandchildren, and 1 great-great-grandchild.

You do not have to be a Veteran or a motorcycle rider to attend this mission. All PGR members are 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.
