About the Mission:

The family of Bruce Wayne Fronk has requested Patriot Guard Riders participation in his military honors funeral services. Bruce, 80, passed away peacefully on June 22, 2023, just shy of his 81st birthday.

Born in Glenville, NY, Bruce graduated from Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake High School in 1960. He enlisted in the US Air Force in 1961, and served honorably until his discharge in 1965, including time served overseas in England.

Following his military service, Bruce worked as a Technician for Roland J.
