    A decorated U.S. Army veteran, Master Sergeant Michael “Ty” Kettenhofen, lost his life in a parachuting accident during a practice jump with the Golden Knights at Homestead Air Reserve Base in Florida on March 13.

    Kettenhofen, who served in Afghanistan and Iraq and was a recipient of the Purple Heart, had over 1,000 jumps under his belt. He was remembered by Lt. Col. Andy Moffit, the commander of the Golden Knights Parachute Team, for his accomplishments and sense of humor.

    The public paid tribute to the fallen hero as his procession traveled through several cities, including Jurupa Valley, Riverside, Perris and Menifee, where it concluded at Evans-Brown Mortuary.
