Riders staged at the Visitors Center and were briefed on the Hero's obituary. One rider actually rode his bike and he was assigned to an Honor Bike position.  A family friend and PGR member had flags on his SUV so he was assigned also as an Honor 'Bike'.  Due to the large amount of PGR cages the riders were immediately sent to Shelter D to prepare the site for the service.  The ride captain remained behind to get the lane parking corrected since many vehicles had pulled into lane A not knowing the shelter assignment had changed to D.  When the family arrived the plaque was presented to Mrs. Brouse.  The ride captain also visited with the Son, Dan, and his daughter, Stacey, whom he had known from a different volunteer organization but had not seen in about 15years.  

The family arrived at the shelter for the inurnment service where Military Honors were provided by the Marine Honor Guard.  At the conclusion of the service the Riders were re-positioned near the columbarium where Sgt. Brouse was to placed.  The family observed the placement from the protection of the shelter while the PGR rendered honors.  The riders were then dismissed to attend two more missions.
