Patriot Guard rides into Paynesville...
Around 20 motorcyclists - part of the Patriot Guard Riders -
rode into Paynesville on Highway 55 coming from the east on Saturday.
In all, about 50 motorcyclists met for lunch at Jimmy's Pizza
in downtown Paynesville on Saturday. The group -
at the request of families - attends military funerals
to show their respect for fallen heroes who risked their lives
for America's freedom and security, and to protect grieving families
from any interruptions caused by protestors at the funeral.
