    The Patriot Guard Riders were invited to participate in the interment service for Mr. Robert Louis Evans.

    It was a beautiful morning for 8 riders to show up at the Cook Walden Capital Parks funeral home.
    We had a short briefing at 12:30 and relocated to the pavilion for military honors and a short service.
    We walked a short distance and stood a second flag line where Robert would be laid to rest.
    His urn was placed in what looked like granite book shelves and a lid placed on top was a bird bath made of granite.
    Family members thanked us for honoring their loved one.

    We retreated and put up three flags. I thanked all the riders and wished them a safe trip home.

    RIP SGT Evans
