The family and friends of David J. DiStefano, have invited the Patriot Guard Riders to honor their loved one at his final services.  Mr. DiStefano, served in the United States Army during WWII.  He attained the rank of Sgt and was a Heavy Equipment Operator along with driving large trucks.   Mr. DiStefano was an American Legion Member for over 52 years.

We will be accompanying Mr. DiStefano and his family from the Mortuary to the church, and then to Oak Hills Cemetery for Miltary honors.

For those interested, and all are welcome, we will be accompanying the hero and his family from the funeral home, to the church, and then to his final resting place.  Please see the time table if you would like to participate.
