Horse-Drawn Hearse to Honor Fallen Troops

Nonno · 05-22-2009, 09:43 AM

"While good Americans across the political spectrum hold widely divergent views of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, most unite around one fundamental rallying cry: “We support our troops.” For Lorraine Melgosa of Manzanola, Colorado, those words are more than a popular mantra.

As the owner of the Wellington Carriage Company in Manzanola, Colorado, Melgosa supports fallen troops by carrying them to their final resting places in a horse-drawn hearse - often at her own expense."

"Melgosa sees it as her duty to honor those who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan. “How,” she asks, “could you not do this? Whatever gift you can give to these soldiers and their families, you should give. It’s the least you can do to try to honor them.”
