The family of David Pazols Fruin has requested the presence of the Patriot Guard Riders to honor this American Hero; it will be our honor to do so.
David was born in Inglewood, California, on 14 August 1978 and entered Eternal Rest on 17 March 2023 in Riverside.
David enlisted in the Army in 1997, serving until 2003. He was trained as a Dental Specialist while in the Army. His awards/citations included the National Defense Service Medal, the Army Service Ribbon, and the Overseas Service. His last duty station was in Kaiserslautern, Germany. David was honorably discharged as a Corporal (E-4).
David loved baseball and spent most of his time umpiring for many leagues during his time. He did most of his umpiring at Canyon Lake Little League, where he was umpire in chief and where he spent most of his time. David was committed to the Lake Elsinore Little League and was a part of the Umpire Association.
David is survived by his wife Amber and sons Erick, Patrick, and Cole, and his daughter Kaydin. He also leaves behind his stepson Evan, his sister Andrea and his parents.
NOTE: This mission posting will facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring this Military Veteran. For those interested, and all PGR members are welcome, we will accompany the Hero and his family from the Post to his final resting place. Please see the timetable if you would like to participate. We will meet you there for those who would instead go directly to the Cemetery.
NOTE: Please observe the latest “COVID-19” restrictions.

You do not have to be a Veteran or a motorcycle rider to attend this mission. All PGR members are welcome. We encourage those who do not ride to attend in your car. If this will be your first mission, go to the initial staging area, and you will be briefed there by the R/C (Ride Captain). Dress for motorcycle riding or wear casual attire if you are driving a cage (car). Please feel free to attend any portion of this mission you can. Please ride/drive safely.
Please remember that our mission is to stand tall, silent, and with honor and respect for our Heroes—no talking, smoking, or cell phone use during the flag line or service. Remember, cemeteries are hallowed ground. Show respect to all who are there, not just those we honor.
