The PGR has been invited by the family and fellow Marines to attend the services of their Hero, Cpl Kevin Lizama, we would be honored to do so.
 
Cpl Kevin Lizama sadly succumbed to his injuries from a motorcycle accident, and passed away on Monday, September 23, 2013.
 
Cpl Kevin Lizama enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps in 2009, he served in the well known battalion, the 3/5 Darkhorse, and just recently returned from a 15th MEU tour of duty.  This is a world wide patrol near hot spots wherever assigned, serving as a security force.
 
Kevin loved the Marine Corps and he loved riding motorcycles, his friend and fellow Marine told us that having the PGR there at his service will mean a lot to the family and would have meant a lot to Kevin.
 
Kevin is survived by his wife Raiza Terrazas, daughter Aliya who just turned 1 year old, his parents Mario and Dinora, and 3 brothers, Mario, Irving and Salvador.
