We do our best to look pretty for the camera
Rodney Hanngi, 76, a Vietnam War veteran from Horace. Hanngi, who served on a Huey helicopter crew while overseas, enjoyed fixing up older vehicles, so a restored 1966 Pontiac hearse was used to bring Hanngi's body to the cemetery.
During our first couple funerals we had to make due by wearing individual club jackets.

Gary
Tandsater
Job title or function
Tandsater was there at the beginning of F.M.H.G., in fact he was at nearly every funeral. He was always in good humor and very openly friendly to all. Gary was honored to be part of the Honor Guard, as all of us are, but Gary stood taller than most. Our formations will never be the same with him missing. He's the 1st of our organization to be laid to rest and that is a cold reminder that all of us serving in the Honor Guard will be provided the 3 Volley Salute sometime in our future. The pride that we felt providing Gary his honors was overwhelming and surreal. Gary,... we will always hear you shouting out "Don't anticipate the command."
What is its purpose?
The cemetery was dedicated on September 7, 2019 and the first interment took place on October 15, 2019. The first phase of cemetery development offers more than 3,000 casket and cremation spaces to accommodate burials for the next 10 years.
