LAST RIDE & CELEBRATION OF LIFE
PFC William "Bill" Armand Cote, Army National Guard & Patriot Guard Member, OF Mosheim, TX
The family of Private First Class "Bill" Cote has requested the presence and participation of the Patriot Guard Riders in the Last Ride and Celebration of Life of their Loved One. The Pitstop has graciously offered to provide, at no charge, a pulled-pork lunch for this Celebration and the family is bringing sides. There WILL BE A DONATION BOX available at the Pitstop (or get with one of the PGR Ride Captains) and all monies gathered will be presented to Mary, Bill's Widow, to help her in her transition caused by the loss of their only income when Bill passed.
This ride & celebration is open to ANYONE who knew and loved Bill - NOT just Patriot Guard Riders.
Setup & Briefing: At the direction of the Ride Captain. Depending on the number of folks attending, we will either set up flags on rebar or hold flags as Bill arrives from his Last Ride.
I offer my condolences to the family and friends of this HERO who will not be forgotten. Rest in peace forever free.
They may take my LIFE, but they will NEVER take my FREEDOM!
