We had 8 PGR members at the memorial service and interment service in Taylor today, standing in honor for another gentleman from the Greatest Generation, Mr. Albert Harry Zeplin. Albert served in the US Army Air Corps during WWII from 1942 to 1945 in the European Theater as an aircraft mechanic and was discharged as a sergeant after the war ended. Albert was married for 56 years and his extended family in attendance today were very appreciative of our gathered PGR group. I was also told by one of the FH staff that Albert would have turned 100 years old on tomorrow, Friday 9/3/21/. We also welcomed first-time PGR rider Robert Lee Collins of Cedar Creek, TX on todays mission. I thank you all who took time out of your day to make a difference in someone’s life today…it was clearly evident we did just that! Godspeed Albert Zeplin and thank you for your service good sir!
