MISSION ACCOMPLISHED - Once again the North Texas Patriot Guard Riders stood tall and silent for ND Hopkins, Chief Petty Officer, United States Naval Reserve. Today's celebration of life was an outstanding tribute to a man who served his country during the Korean War as a battleship Sailor on the USS Missouri, then came home and became a pillar of the Grand Prairie community from 1958 until his final retirement last week. We honored his life and service with a Flag Line at his Committal Service at the Dallas Ft. Worth National Cemetery.  A huge thanks goes to all the Riders who stood the line and the four honor bikes who escorted the procession to the Committal Shelter. The North Texas Patriot Guard Riders would also like to recognized the motor officers from the Grand Prairie Police Department for their final tribute to Mr. Hopkins.  And, as always, a huge thank you to Linda Tinnerman for providing water, snacks and serving as the Mission Photographer.
