    CONFIRMED CENTEX MISSION

    The family of Edmond Edward Palko has requested the presence of the Patriot Guard Riders at the Family's Graveside Memorial for their Loved One. Edmond has already been interred at CTSVC. Since his full family was unable to attend the original service, they are holding a Family Memorial at his gravesite at CTSVC and have asked the PGR to be there for support.

    Edmund was a WWII Veteran who proudly served The US Army Air Corps, flying 35 missions during WWII. His full obituary may be found here: obits.dignitymemorial.com/dignity-memorial/obituary.aspx?n=Edmund-Palko&lc=4885&pid=171357132&mid=6009849
