The Patriot Guard Riders staged in the church parking lot. The PGR Certificate of Appreciation was presented to the family prior to the mission briefing. Following the mission briefing, the riders stood the Flag Line for the arrival of Family and friends at the Celebration of Life for PFC Groves. Just prior to the start of the service, the riders formed two honor lines in the church lobby as the Family Processional moved from the gym to the sanctuary.  After the start of the Service, Flags were furled and the riders dismissed. The United States Army conducted military honors.
