Staging:  We will stage at the Boze-Mitchell-McKibbin Funeral Home, 511 W. Main St. (Bus 287), Waxahachie from 1230 to 1250.  There will be a short mission brief, with the flag line to be in place at 1300.  

Visitation:  Will be from 1330 to 1500 at the funeral home.

Memorial Service:  Will begin at 1500.  Shortly after the service begins, we will take the flags down and the majority of the riders will proceed to the cemetery.  We will leave a couple of flag bikes behind to ride with the coach and family to the cemetery at the conclusion of the service.

Interment:  Will be held at the Waxahachie City Cemetery on S. Hawkins (no exact address) just a couple of blocks southwest of the funeral home.  We will have a flag line ready to meet the coach and family after the service has concluded.

Weather:  Mostly sunny, highs in the mid 90's.  South winds 10-15 mph, increasing to 15-20 mph.  We will have shade at the funeral home, but no guarantees at the cemetery.  Please begin hydrating the night before and bring some water with you for the ride.  Summer has arrived in Texas so be prepared for anything, and don't forget your sunscreen.

Iron horses if you can, big flags if you have them, and as always, cages are welcome!  All riders and clubs are invited to join us as we "Stand Tall and Silent" for this soldier and his family.

Respectfully submitted,

Wendy "HotLips" Ingersoll
