The family of Greg Rhome 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.
Greg Rhome served his country in the US Marines from September 1966 until September 1968. During his service Greg, served in Vietnam and was honorably discharged at the rank of Corporal. Unfortunately, exposure to agent and PTSD created health problems for Greg.
In his civilian life, Greg was a psychologist working as a counselor at the Alpine Special Treatment Center and later as the director of CASH. He loved to ride motorcycles, was an avid reader and enjoyed being outdoors.
Greg is survived by his wife of 45 years Michele Rhome, two sons Joshua, Christopher and daughter Chance and 2 grandchildren, brother Joseph Rhome, sister Mary Clark Rhome and was preceded in death by his brother Larry Rhome.

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 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—no talking, smoking, or cell phone use during the flag line or service. Please keep the radios off and engine noise to a minimum. Show respect to all who are there, not just the ones we honor.
