10/1/2011 – Frank Baker, Jr.

Cavalry,
First of all amazing job, when I first contacted you I felt a little foolish, but when you showed up, it was amazing. My daddy never asked for a funeral, but loved his country to the end.

Not being able to give him a funeral, due to his donating his body to cancer research. All my daddy would have enjoyed was meeting the Brazoria County Cavalry. It wasn’t until we were there facing you, the pride you showed a true fellow American.

I saw and felt the emotions I believe my father would, and I know my daddy would have been in tears to receive the honors you presented to him on Saturday. I do fully believe in my heart my daddy was there, he wouldn’t have missed it for the world. No words can express what your team has done for us and there is no simple way to thank you. We totally loved the ceremony, bike parade everything you did was amazing and we are so grateful to you all. Thank you again from the family of our American hero Mr. Frank W Baker Jr. may he rest in peace. We also had lunch cooked for you, guess Mr. Baker forgot to mention that or we all did, lol…
