There will be a family viewing time from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. with a
funeral service immediately following the viewing beginning at 11:00 a.m.
Part 1 Staging: Plan to arrive not later than 9:30 a.m. at Thompson,
Harvson and Cole Funeral Home, 702 8th Avenue, Fort Worth, Texas 76104. We will
place the flags prior to 9:45 a.m. and stand the flag line until shortly
after commencement of the funeral service at 11:00 a.m. At that time we will
remove the flags and prepare for the mission Part 2. Big flag bike riders and
other riders wishing to ride as an escort will remain with the funeral
procession to escort the family to the cemetery. Fort Worth Police Escort Service
will escort the funeral procession to the cemetery. Patriot Guard Riders
will not provide road guard services.
We will need 8 or 10 riders to go ahead with the Ride Captain to the
cemetery to assist in setting up the flag line and preparing for the arrival of the
family and funeral procession, due to short time frame between services.
