The family of Jesus Javier Miranda has invited the Patriot Guard Riders (PGR) to attend the Military Honors of their loved one as he makes his final journey. It will be our honor to do so.
Jesus was born on 27 February 1949 in Zacatecas, Mexico.
Jesus entered the Army in March 1969 and served during the Vietnam Conflict until December 1970. After Basic Training, Jesus received training as a Light Vehicle Driver. His awards/citations included the National Defense Service Medal, Vietnam Service Medal, and the Sharpshooter (Rifle) Badge. At the time of his honorable discharge as a Specialist
4 (E-4), Jesus was released from active duty from Ft. Ord, California.
After the military, Jesus worked and retired from AT&T.
Jesus is survived by his wife Ofelia, three children, Jesse Jr., Melissa, and Jerry. He also leaves behind seven grandchildren.
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 and his family from the church to his final resting place. Please see the timetable if you would like to participate. For those who would instead go directly to the cemetery, we will meet you there.
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 participate in your car. If this is 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 dress casually if you are driving a cage (car). Please feel free to attend any portion of this mission you can. Please ride/drive safely.
Remember that our mission is to stand tall and silent with honor and respect for our Heroes without talking, smoking, or cell phone use during the flag line or service. Please keep radios off and engine noise to a minimum. Remember, cemeteries are hallowed ground. Show respect to all who are there, not just the ones we are honoring.
