November 20, 2017 at 9:27 pm #5028The GhostModeratorFour bikes and two cages attended the mission for Seaman Steffek. Had an amalgam of LEO's, Plugerville, Georgetown and Bell County; did pretty well. Mass started 20 minutes late because someone told the organist the wrong time; flag line therefore was 20 minutes longer than usual, but all survived. Family was very appreciative of our standing for their loved one.
