Today we buried a Solider .. Matt Maulpin .. a boy raised right here in my neighborhood who went to war to give us freedom ...
Memorial services for Staff Sgt. Matt Maupin will be held April 26 and 27, the soldier’s father, Keith Maupin, confirmed today.
The family is planning a 24-hour visitation and vigil for their son at Union Township Civic Center in Eastgate on April 26.
Funeral services will be held on April 27, at a downtown Cincinnati location that has yet to be determined. The family is looking for a venue large enough to hold the thousands of people who are expected to pay their respects to the fallen Clermont County soldier.
Thousands walked past Staff Sgt. Matt Maupin's casket during a daylong visitation at a civic center in Clermont County, east of Cincinnati, where he grew up. Many of them headed to Great American Ball Park, home of the Cincinnati Reds, for an afternoon memorial service.
The crowd occupied the lower portion of the 42,000-seat stadium, behind home plate, stretching from first base to third.
