The family of Richard Cleveland Boothby has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be present to honor their hero for his service to his country.   It will be our privilege to do so.

Richard Boothby, 83, served his country for 8 years in the US Navy, time that included duty in the Naval Reserves.  His last assignment was aboard the USS Hancock (CVA-19).   

For his service he was awarded the National Defense Service Medal.  After 8 years of honorable service he was honorably discharged as a Seaman (E-3)

The family has requested an accompaniment from St. Anne Catholic Church to The Holy Cross Cemetery, a distance of approximately 4.4 miles.

There will be motor escorts.

NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring this Military Veteran. For those interested, and all are welcome, we will be accompanying the hero and his family from the church service to his final resting place. Please see the time table if you would like to participate. For those who would rather go directly to the cemetery, we will meet you there.
