Riders staged at Avenue Church in Waxahachie and manned the flag line as family and friends arrived.  The family met with the Ride Captains and Riders outside the church on this beautiful, sunny day.  Presentation of the PGR Certificate and canvas portrait of SSgt. Shoemaker was given to his wife, family, and friends.  At 1500 pm we rendered honors as SSGT Shoemaker was brought out of the church and placed in the coach.  We then mounted up and began the procession to the city cemetery.  We arrived at the cemetery and stood tall and silent for the service.  After the service ended we furled the flags, riders were briefed, and then dismissed. 

The PGR would also like to thank the Waxahachie Police for our safe escort to the City Cemetery.
