The family of Staff Sergeant Jeremy E.

Staff Sergeant Bessa is currently scheduled to arrive at Addison Airport on March 9, 2009 with services and interment on March 10, 2009. Staff Sergeant Bessa is survived by a wife and young son. His father and brother are also in the United States Army.
Details are being worked out at this time between the family and the military and a final itinerary will be posted as soon as possible.
Please prepare to stand tall and silent for this young man who gave his life for his country.
Thank you.
S. L.
Deputy State Captain
North Texas PGR"

A friend of mine rode the escort from Addison Airport to the Funeral Home today. He said that it was the LARGEST turnout for an initial escort that he has seen!! 70+ Bikes.
I'll be riding with the procession tomorrow, but also plan on mixing with our Brothers.
Will take some pics and report tomorrow evening.
Later.
