The family of Brandon Michael Zoeller, age 38, has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be present at his memorial service to honor him for his service to his country, we are privileged to do so.
Brandon enlisted in the US Marine Corps Reserves shortly after finishing high school. He was activated right after the start of the Global War on Terror in Iraq and spent 6 months in combat, from January, 2003 through June, 2003. He was left with the heavy burden of the memories of what he experienced in war, but was always proud of serving. He was honorably discharged at the rank of Lance Corporal.
After serving in the military Brandon went to work for Trader Joe's as a retail clerk. He loved the outdoors, camping, fishing and shooting. He was also a football fan, his team was the Philadelphia Eagles.
Brandon is survived by his wife, his 5 year old daughter, his mother, father and a brother and sister.
