"Well last night my dad and I rode his motorcycle to the Fargo airport, along with Jesse, Wes, Mitch, and Phillip. Our friend Josh who was killed serving in the army in Iraq came home. The Patriot Guard Riders, friends, and family escorted him from Fargo to PR. It was very emotional, but we were so honored to be part of the group. The escort went from Fargo to Detroit Lakes and stopped at the armory for a prayer and then headed into Pelican Rapids. We got into PR at about 11pm and downtown was packed with people. I can't explain how I felt when we drove through town, people who did or didn't know Josh had come out to honor him. It was a long and draining night for everyone and is something I pray I never have to go through again."
