Once again the North Texas Patriot Guard Riders stood tall and silent for the service of an American Hero, EM1C Ray Pierron.  Riders established a parade of flags in front of the church and then manned a flag line leading up to the entrance of the church.  Honors were rendered upon the arrival of the coach and family.  Military honors were conducted by the Navy Honor Guard inside the church with the PGR members rendering honors as we stood inside at the back of the church.  The Riders then re-established a flag line leading to the coach and rendered honors as the casket was loaded for it's long trip to Louisiana.  Then the flag line was removed and flags stowed in support vehicle, riders were debriefed and dismissed.
