Her last ride.
 

Last week my mother died. Everyone close to her always told me how much she enjoyed riding with me, that she probably talked more about the ride than the actual length of the ride itself.

Since she was being cremated I suggested to my dad that perhaps I should transport the ashes to the cemetery on my bike. He loved the idea.

Cremation was yesterday, so this morning the youngest of her 12 children (my sister) and the eldest (me) rode down to the Riverside National Cemetery for the internment of her ashes.

My son met us along the way and rode the last 25 miles or so with us. I decided to memorialize the ride for the family, so if interested:


Her final miles.

Arriving at the cemetery.

In the cemetery.

My condolences go out to you and your family for the loss of your mother.

"Your life is just a vapor that appears for a little while and then you vanish away" - James

Sounds like a nice send off.

My heart goes out to you brother.

Nice send off for your mom. :)

Way to do it in style.

If you got to go, that sounds like a good way to do it, I feel for yah bro

Good bye!

:Oh crap

Good bye.

She would forgive you . . . . I still think you are an asshole. :2 cents:

Nice one Eric, I knew what you would do, once you seen that scumbags post.

Thats the way to do it! She was smiling the whole way.

:)

I have to agree.

my condolences baddog. It looked like a beautiful day for a ride :thumbsup

It turned into one. It was 45 when I left.

All mothers should have a son like you Lloyd.

All sons should have a mother they love like you.

Was the guy at the end of the last video saying something about you guys having no respect?

You may have noticed a couple vehicles become involved in our procession. They kind of cut us off. Must have been in a hurry. That is who he was talking about.

May she rest in peace Loyd.

A very thoughtful gesture for her funeral.

Thanks for sharing.

Much love for you and your family Lloyd. Keep ridin.

My condolences................

man sorry for your loss.. its great that you will always have such good memories of her and that pic is a gem!

Holy shit Baddog ... such a great sentiment. I am sure your Mom would have loved it. I'm sorry for you losing her. I've lost a parent. It sucks ass.

A fitting final tribute to what im sure was a very eventful life.

Best wishes to you Lloyd.

Condolences.

Condolences and what a great idea to do that and to film it all.
Your dad & family must be proud

Fucking Right man, what a way to bring MoM to her final resting place. Be sure and preserve these videos for the generations of family she created. Your MoM smiled all the way and is still grinning from ear to ear. Imagine watching this footage 100 years from now .. Sorry for your loss. Ride On

I don't think I could handle it right now if my mom passed.

sorry to hear

My deepest sympathies to you and yours. It was a beautiful gesture - I'm sure she enjoyed the ride.

Once again my deepest condolences to you and your entire family. It looks like it was a gorgeous day, and I'm betting Mom was smiling the entire way.

People are jerks, sorry you had to deal with that. Glad the family was able to unite the way it did for your mom's last ride. :thumbsup

My sincere condolences, it's always hard to loose a mother.

Stay strong mate, Condolence from all of us here.

I am very sorry.

Condolences(You made riding sound and look like an awesome experience at least for me,always beautiful pics,no matter the event)

God Bless Her and all of those 12 kids Man that is some Kids. I'm so happy to say my MOM or WOW is still going strong at 84 and I pray for many more years with her :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thum bsup:thumbsup

Sorry for your loss BadDog. your mom looked like a cool mom in those pictures. Beautiful smile.

Gotta love a mom who even in old age would sit at the back of her son's Harley with a big smile on her face. Condolences Baddog.

She was obviously loved. :thumbsup

Sometimes, someone like you will appear, and let us all take a moment to ponder over why good people like this mans mother are where YOU belong.

Hat on chest, Mr. Bad Dog.. sorry for your loss!

Is that a combat wounded special plate on the van, there?

Lloyd,


I'm so sorry to learn about your loss, Our thoughts and prayers with you and your family.

I know how hard is too loose a loved one, Stay strong and god speed.

You sir are one fucking worthless cocksucker. May you rot in hell!!!!

This was very touching to say the least. I am happy you gave her a final ride to show your love and memories of your Mother....may she rest in peace.

Our condolences are with you and your Family, Lloyd.
