The Patriot Guard gave honor to Frank Yannich, a Navy veteran who tragically lost his life on his motorcycle when a motorist ran a stop sign and t-boned him. The motorist and passenger fled the scene, leaving Frank for dead. Frank was a man who served God, his country, and his fellow human beings with humility and respect, and having the Patriot Guard at his service gave him the dignity and honor that the driver who hit him did not.
Thank you, Jarrod, Greg, and all the others who selflessly gave their time to attend the service in Pembroke, GA, on May 22, 2026. Frank loved his bike, and he would have loved seeing all of you there. Not only was Jarrod at the service, but Jarrod brought his young son and wife to honor Frank. He is a true role model for our youth. Greg spent time on the phone with me before the service, and he was incredibly compassionate.
I can’t thank this group enough for their service to veterans and their loved ones. Be safe, and God Bless You All!
We were honored to be there.
