Appreciation for Patriotism

Ted and Inez F, Wichita Falls

Thank you, Wichita Falls

Thank you Wichita Falls for doing a very patriotic service on Oct. 16. On that day a young fallen hero, Cody Board, his family and the Patriot Guard Riders and their support vehicles rolled onto Highway 287 to take this young hero to his final resting place at the Ft. Sill National Cemetery in Oklahoma.

As the long caravan of motorcycles, cars trucks and support vehicles proceeded on their journey, there were lots of people standing on overpasses all throughout the city with American flags waving and people wiping tears from their eyes. We have never seen such a loving, patriotic display of affection from so many people. As the caravan moved along the interstate people pulled to the side of the interstate and got out of their vehicles and placed their hands over their hearts or waved at the motorcade. These people were in awe of what they had just seen. The Patriot Guard Riders of North Texas and Oklahoma on their motorcycles were leading this young man and his family on a journey that he would never return from. So thank you Wichita Falls for your support of this young man and his family and let’s not forget our servicemen and women all over the world and here in America, who give their all for all of us.

They deserve a moment of our time to honor them when they have given their all. Just remember “Freedom is not free.”

Thank you for your patriotism and your support on that day and everyday.

Nice job, Mom...
