PGR-USAF Deborah Dowell Casto Valley

PGR was asked to honor a fallen Veteran and an Honor it was.  Mission notice:

The Patriot Guard Riders have been requested to Escort Fallen
Veteran Deborah Dowell to her memorial service. Here is what her
fiance Mike had to say about his beloved...

Debi, is my fiance of 4 years. She is a Honorably discharged Veteran
of the United States Air Force. She passed 9 days after open heart
surgery. She is a wonderful women who I would like family and
friends to see her honored by the Patriot Guard. If possible

Debi was in the Air Force from 1978-1984 and was an E-4 at the
time of her Honorable Discharge. Because Mike & Debi loved to
ride, Mike will be joining us on this Escort with his bike.
Please bring your Flags and lets Honor this Hero

Thanks to the family for asking PGR to attend.

I like to say all missions are different, at the last moment there was a notice on our facebook  page that the staging had been moved from SB to Peets Coffee, some of our folks don't do FB, so I got there about 1/2 hour early to put up my flag for notice, and it worked!  Scouts Vulcan on the right. 

My sweet Ruby and another...

... and then the bulk of us, I'll guess 12 - 15 scoots, great showing for less than a days notice of the mission.

Just visiting and waiting for the briefing.....   Our RC (Ride Captain) with his back to us.

More scoots....   While I was waiting for folks to show up, a cage stopped by and asked about the 3x5 flag flying, I explained it was a honor mission for a fallen Veteran.

... another shot.....

Nice group of folks!  Our RC who also rides with WWR gave us our briefing and laid it out in fine fashion!  Thank you for what you do!   We need more like you to help out on honor missions.

We arrive at the family home after a short ride and our RC and Scout discuss the route to the service.  Mike was in the center and rode with us.

More of our group....

... and more....

We arrive at the service location and get ready for the flag line.  The family thanked us for attending and again, it was our honor!  God Bless during this sad time of passing.
