Six riders accompanied the funeral procession to Central Texas State Veterans Cemetery in Killeen.Thanks to you all who endured 107 Deg temperatures riding with the procession and helping to get all the Centex PGR's flags put away before we left. Thanks to Nicki and her husband for bringing the flags for the chapel.
Great job. -
