Thursday, June 28, 2007
CLAYTON An added police presence is expected to be on hand at a local soldier's funeral Friday due to a fundamentalist Christian group's plans to demonstrate during the viewing.
Bentz, 20, was killed in Iraq last week of wounds suffered when an improvised explosive device detonated near his vehicle.
Mass of Christian Burial is scheduled for noon at St. Catherine of Siena Church in Clayton. Visitation at the church will begin at 9 a.m. and end at Mass time. Interment is at Gloucester County Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Williamstown.
