About 11 Riders arrived at the funeral home and prepared the flag line for the families arrival.  After the briefing, riders stood the line as the family arrived.  After the service began the flags were furled and stored. The lead ride captain departed for the cemetery.  Once the funeral director determined who was to receive the flag and/or the PGR certificate, the assistant ride captain presented the certificate to Mr. Havens daughter.   

The procession to DFW was uneventful and arrived on time.  When the lead ride captain arrived at DFW he found many more riders waiting to stand the line for this WW II veteran and the shelter already prepared with the flag line.

As the family arrived at the shelter they saw many riders and flags in bright sunshine.  When this service neared its conclusion, several riders were quietly sent to the next mission at shelter C which was to begin shortly.    When the Havens family departed they were thankful for our presence.  It was our privilege to honor this veteran.
