Six riders prepared and stood the flag line at Faith Lutheran Church as the family and friends arrived.  Once the service began the flags were furled and stored.  The riders were honored by the family to act as pall bearers as SMSgt. Ernest was transferred to the coach.  The family then returned to the church hall for a meal.  Two riders in cages then left for DFW National Cemetery.  When the procession began, three motorcycles lead the coach and a big flag back took up the position of tail gunner.  The long ride to the cemetery was uneventful thanks in part to the escort service.  Upon arrival at DFW National Cemetery four big flags bikes awaited the procession and surrounded the coach as it made its way to the shelter.  The Honor Guard provided full military honors.
