The family of Dale Kent Henry Jr. has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to escort Dale and his family from, Awaken Church parking lot to Miramar National Cemetery.
It will be our honor to do so.

Dale served in the United States Air Force from January 21, 1966, thru April 8, 1966. He spent his time at March Air Force base, having been trained as an Air Freight Specialist. Then Dale was honorably discharged from active duty.

After his service, he lived his life on his own terms with wit and humor. Dale was a Disabled, Small Business Owner, selling water. He helped others find jobs and helped
give guidance to many less fortunate people. Dale was known to have a generous spirit and a deep love for people, having the heart of a giant. Dale loved classic cars and fishing. He also had deep faith in God. Dale was a volunteer with Wounded Warriors and other Veteran's Programs.

Dale is survived by his loving daughter Kimberly Paige Henry and adopted in spirit daughter Valerie Martinez, sister Jeananne Dicerchio, Bother Rich Henry and
Wayne Henry. Aunt Arlene and Wanda Henry, many nieces and nephews, also lots of friends.

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 Ride Captain (RC). 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.

Please remember that our mission is to stand tall and silent, and with honor and respect for our Heroes. No talking, smoking, or cell phone use during the flag line or service. Please keep radios off and engine noise to a minimum. Observe the 15 MPH speed limit. Remember, cemeteries are hallowed ground. Show respect to all who are there, not just the ones we are honoring.
