Whether through his participation in wrestling tournaments or his days in school, he never missed an opportunity to bring joy to those around him.”NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring this military veteran. For those interested, and all PGR members are welcome, we will be accompanying the hero and his family from the airport to the funeral home, approximately 135 miles.
