The United States and the family of Daniel Vincent Bolin have requested the Patriot Guard Riders attend the military honors of their hero. We are privileged to participate.
A proud United States Marine Corps veteran, Daniel served his country with honor for 7 years, which included 4 tours in Iraq. After his military service, he spent 11 years working as a truck driver for Bragg, where his work ethic and reliability earned the respect of his colleagues.
Daniel was a devoted husband, father, son, and brother. He cherished his family above all else and found joy in the simple moments with his loved ones. His kindness, sense of humor, and compassion will be missed by all who knew him.
Daniel is survived by his loving wife, three daughters, mother, and siblings. He touched the lives of all who knew him, and his memory will live on in their hearts.
NOTE: At the conclusion of services at Cottonwood Church, Daniel’s cremains will be placed on his Bragg truck and there will be a procession to his workplace at Bragg Equipment.
