Part 1 of 2 Parts:

The family of West Point Cadet Kade S. Kurita, age 20, and the US Army have invited the Patriot Guard Riders to attend the arrival and funeral of this young Cadet, we would be honored to do so.

Cadet Kade Kurita was attending school at West Point Military Academy when he sadly passed away. As a West Point Cadet he is eligible for Military Honors and a PGR mission.

His fellow Cadets and the staff of the Academy are greatly saddened by this loss.  Cadet Kurita was referred to as an outstanding student, outstanding military candidate, and was expected to have a very promising career in the military. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

For those interested, and all are welcome, we will be accompanying him and his family from the airport to the mortuary, a distance of approx 19 miles .
