Video of the Graveside Service

I took a video of the service at the National Cemetery in West Dallas.  It's taken me several days, several hours, to get this right, because it was such a huge file to begin with.  I hope it posts okay.  If not, then I'll fix it.  Please leave a comment if it doesn't work.  Or leave a comment if you feel compelled.  Several parts are a little bumpy, I'm sorry for that. Thanks.

Funeral - at the National Cemetary

21 Gun Salute

Freedom Bell that tolled.

The Patriot Riders. They were at the viewing in the morning, the funeral in the afternoon, and led the caravan from the church to the cemetery.  What an awesome group of individuals.  I can't begin to say enough about these people.

Tuesday, April 2, 2012-Update on Service Plans

It seems Reno's body will be transmitted here on Thursday. Adjusted preliminary schedule is viewing at Wade Funeral Home on Friday and Services on Saturday. Times are unavailable right now. More details later.

Reno's arrival

Sunday, April1, 2012 Preliminary Plans

I talked to Kim tonight via Skype.  They are all home and have been receiving friends and family at their home in Kennedale.  Brandie is still in Alaska, with the kids.  The military is still handling Reno's body.  The PRELIMINARY PLANS are for Reno's viewing to be at Wade Funeral Home in Arlington on Thursday, then on Friday the church service at Trinity United Methodist Church in Arlington, and the graveside service in the afternoon at the national cemetery in Grand Prairie.  This is all predicated on the military releasing Reno's body in time for this to happen, so please don't etch this in stone, it is only a preliminary plan.  It is an emotional time, especially with Good Friday and Easter upcoming this next weekend. Kassidy and Penelope are staying with Russell and Kim for the next week, and Nick will be joining her soon.  I will post again as soon as I know anything else.
