Welcome Our Home Town HERO

As a community let's rally together and welcome Sgt. Bryan “Cooper” Mount home as his remains are returned to Utah.   

The body of 82nd Airborne Division paratrooper and Southern Utah resident will be returned to St. George Thursday, and the community is being invited to line Main Street in a show of support and respect as the body is escorted to the mortuary. 

The military airplane carrying Mount’s body will arrive at the St. George Airport Thursday at around 3:30 p.m. where it will be met by a police escort and the Patriot Guard Riders. 

The motorcade will travel west along the Southern Parkway then turn north onto Interstate 15 where it will take Exit 6 on Bluff Street and turn right onto Main Street. 

Community members are encouraged to line up at about 3:45-4 pm. along Main Street beginning at 100 South, particularly in the area of Town Square and all the way to St. George Blvd., as the procession makes its way to Metcalf Mortuary at 288 W. St. George Blvd.
