Fox News
Funerals begin this week for three Army Reserve soldiers killed in a recent drone strike on the American military base Tower 22 in Jordan by an Iran-backed militia group.
The 46-year-old reservist and Pennsylvania native, who is survived by his wife and son in Georgia, served in uniform for more than a decade after enlisting as an electrician. The Army said his overseas deployments included a nine-month tour in Iraq in 2018. His obituary from a local funeral home called him a warm-hearted family man with a "gentle demeanor and a fierce and determined personality."
Following the church service, Rivers is to be buried at the Georgia National Cemetery for military veterans in Canton, just northwest of Atlanta.
