Staging a little earlier than usual for this mission. The family is receiving visitors in the hour prior to the start of the service at 11:00 a.m. Semper Gumby as we may split the flag line into two groups. 10-10:30 group and 10:30-11 group.

Excellent turnout to honor Donald Imboden for his service to our country. Twenty-three Patriots on Motorcycles including two cages. Unfortunately our cages got cut off from the procession through no fault of their own. I spoke with Mr. Imboden's son Todd and he asked me to pass along to all of the Patriot Guard Riders his sincere appreciation for what we do.

Proud to stand with you for this hero
