VVA Chapter 17 & 1076

Subject: Re: Thursday's Interments 07/25/2013


Hi Everyone
As of today, this Thursday July 25th the following funerals are scheduled for 8:40 at the Southern Nevada Veteran’s Memorial Cemetery, 1900 Buchanan Blvd, Boulder City, 89005. These funerals are for Veteran’s that have no one. This weeks people scheduled are:

From the Navy:  Calvin  McCain
From the Army: Joseph Pono, and Jerry Laock

      There is a chance that up to 3 more people may be added this week.

      This week also marks the 1 yr anniversary where we (The Patriot Guard) started meeting regularly on Thursday for the Vets who have no one.  To celebrate we are meeting at Railroad pass after the funerals.  The buffet opens at 10:00 and should be pretty close to when we finish.  I would love to see as many people as possible show up for this one.

For those of you driving down with me, I intend to join the Patriot Guard at the Railroad Pass after the ceremony. ---Joel

As a side note, for anyone interested in riding over together, we will meet for breakfast at IHOP diagonally across the street from Sam’s town on Boulder Hwy around 6:50. It will be KSU at 7:50 to head to BC.  Today maybe a small breakfast since we will be eating again at 10:00.
Thank you Bob Donaghy
