Funeral Procession For U.S. Marine Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui | Norco

09.17.2021 | 1:00 PM | NORCO - RIVERSIDE (CNS) - The remains of one of two Riverside County servicemen killed in a suicide attack in Afghanistan are expected to be returned home today, with plans for a “Fallen Hero Procession” to salute him, a day ahead of his funeral in Riverside.
U.S. Marine Lance Cpl. Kareem Grant Nikoui, 20, of Norco died Aug. 26
in the terrorist attack at Kabul Airport that also claimed the lives of 10 of
his fellow service members, a U.S. Navy corpsman and a U.S. Army soldier, with more than 100 Afghanis slain.
Nikoui was among the contingent providing security during the
accelerated withdrawal of U.S. military personnel from the country, quickly
resulting in the Taliban’s retaking it.
Another Riverside County resident, 22-year-old Marine Cpl. Hunter
Lopez of Indio, died in the same blast. Three days of memorial services for
Lopez began Thursday in the Coachella Valley, where he grew up.
According to Cypress-based Honoring Our Fallen, Nikoui’s remains are
slated to be returned home about noon today. The nonprofit said that the Fallen Hero Procession is planned to salute the young man and his family as the flag- draped coffin is borne from Ontario International Airport to Crestlawn Mortuary in Riverside.
All those interested in honoring the fallen Marine were encouraged to
take safe roadside positions, flags in hand, to pay respects as the procession passes.
“The airport arrival will remain private for the family,” Honoring
Our Fallen founder Laura Herzog told City News Service. “But people can gather anywhere along the route. All the public safety agencies are aware of what’s going on, so people can gather on overpasses and other places all the way to the funeral home.”
The hearse and accompanying vehicles are tentatively scheduled to
leave the tarmac between noon and 1 p.m. and will go south on Vineyard Avenue, joining the Pomona (60) Freeway eastbound, going a mile before transitioning to Interstate 15 southbound. The procession will exit onto Sixth Street in Jurupa Valley, turning east again, then go north on California Avenue before turning east a final time onto North Drive, where the mortuary is located.
Herzog said the Riverside Fire Department will position two ladder
trucks on either side of the funeral home entrance to pay respects as the
procession enters. She said Marines from either the Twentynine Palms Ground Combat Center or Camp Pendleton will be deploying a giant American flag over one of the overpasses, but it was unclear which at this point.
A remembrance service was held for Nikoui at George Ingalls Equestrian
Center on Sept. 4.
“The U.S. Marine, who graduated from Norco High School in 2019 and
served in JROTC, was committed to serving his country and is survived by his mother, father and siblings,” according to a Norco city statement issued soon after the terrorist attack. “Nikoui’s name will be enshrined on the `Lest We Forget Wall’ at Ingalls Veterans Memorial Plaza, which honors Norconians who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our nation.”
Funeral services are set for 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday at Harvest
Christian Fellowship, 6115 Arlington Ave., in Riverside. Pastor Greg Laurie will preside during the four-hour memorial, which
will be open to the public. Between 2,000 and 3,000 people are expected to attend, according to Harvest.

Uraw Devil Dog! It saddens me to see this. Brings back memories when I came home from OIF. The drive back to Two Nine was at night. But was able to see banners up on gates/Fences with our names saying “Welcome Back…” knowing we all didn’t come back. Some passed away in another country never to see their loved ones again. True to what one commentator said on here “ Your Job is Done” … that was his life ??? To grow up, out of High school and join the Marines, serve his country, to pass away!!! I don’t see life the same anymore. There is nothing to prove once you’ve been to theater and see rounds going down range… for real. Semper Fidelis !
