Part 2 of 2 Parts

The family of SGT Mark Anthony Calderon, 26, and the US Army have invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be there for this Hero's funeral as he receives his final honors. We will be honored to do so.

SGT Calderon was serving with the US Army at Ft Drum, NY when he unexpectedly passed away on 18 MAY 2021.  He was attached to COB Engineer Battalion, 1st Combat Brigade Team.  He was a very proud soldier and did an outstanding job in his years in the Army.

SGT Calderon is survived by many family members and friends and his fellow Soldiers who will dearly miss him.  He will not be forgotten.
