The family of TSG Sean Kelly have requested the Patriot Guard Riders to accompany their hero from the mortuary to Riverside National Cemetery. We are privileged to participate.
TSG Kelly retired from the Air Force after 23 years. Sean was one of five generations of family members serving in the Air Force, and his brother who served in the Army. After retirement from the Air Force Sean went to work for the Army as a civilian contractor when he unfortunately passed away.
NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring this military veteran. For those interested, and all PGR members are welcome, we will be accompanying the hero from the funeral home to RNC, approximately 53 miles. Please see the timetable if you would like to participate. For those who would rather go directly to the cemetery, we will meet you there.
