Servando “Kiko” SIlva-Jimenez, 63, Junction City, was laid to rest on Wednesday at the Kansas Veterans Cemetery near the Manhattan Regional Airport. Silva-Jimenez, who died January 15th at Geary Community Hospital in Junction City, had no known next of kin.
Members of the public were urged to respond and show their support for Silva-Jimenez during the graveside service where military honors were provided by the U.S. Army Honor Guard from Fort Riley. Those attending braved the bitter cold to pay their respects.
