The mission post:  

The Warriors’ Watch Riders would like to announce the following 
upcoming mission:

Was not able to get much intel on Raymond, other than he is a Marine and 

a Pearl Harbor Survivor. Our mission is SOP as normal. We will stand the 
line for this Marine As he is placed into his Coach.We then will Escort our 
Hero and his Family to SJVNC,  Santa Nella. There we will stand the Final 
Line as Honors are Rendered.



I met the service at SJVNC Santa Nella, Ca  due to location and time.  Dick,our RC (Ride Captain)  did a great job and got all there safely.  Joined the rest and waited for services



 Lined up and waiting, lead escort bikes and hearse.


 Think there were 5 of us taking up the rear.


 From the front.


 Rest of the group.


 At the committal  shelter.  I like to say "all services are different"  there is no "here is how it is supposed to be..."   We made the escort to the shelter and as usual the scoots pulled ahead of the hearse.

Normally, they all wait for a flag line to the shelter.   The military escort, immediately took the ashes and flag to the shelter, did their salute and waited for us to follow.  Go with the flow, we all just followed along and on with the service.  

It was a nice service and thank you for your service Raymond Brewer!  God Bless and Comfort those left behind.


I've been to SJVNC many times.  For a mid day service I always take a lunch as there are no breaks.  For once I walked around the welcome center and looked out the rear overlook.  VERY nice!  The grass looked like artificial turf, did not go down and test it!  Nice pool at the rear.  It was a very peaceful setting and was nice to just visit!


Also a pool on the far side behind the trees.  Never saw this before.
