ok... it works now. http://www.millerg4686.com

Below was taken from the Calforums:

"I just talked to captain Jim Foster who is our point man for our Honor Guard at Captain Miller's funeral. Jim is using personal vacation days to do this and he is at the viewing tonight.

As I write this we have five pilots present at the viewing tonight. As you walk through the door the first person you see is one of our pilots in full uniform at the "sign in" table helping folks sign in. When the mourners walk into the next room that contains the casket they see two pilots in full uniform and white gloves with hats tucked under their left arm guarding the casket at both the head and foot of the casket. They stand there in total silence and they are replaced every 20 minutes. I have been told that captain Miller's wife was totally overwhelmed by this sign of respect for her husband who was buried in his uniform.

I am very proud of those pilots who were able to help us out and every single one of them did this on their day off. That is what puts the "Honor" in our Honor Guard. Thank you again to those who volunteered to fly in and participate. "

Very nice.
