Taps
The bugle call "Taps" had its origins on a battlefield
of the Civil War. After the union suffered a large number
of casualties in a battle near Richmond, Virginia, Brigade Commander
Colonel Daniel Butterfield reflected with sadness upon the men
he hand lost. Unable to compose music, he hummed a melody
which his aid wrote down in musical notation. The company
bugler played it that night to honor their dead comrades.
Taps was officially recognized by the United States Army in 1874.
Accompanied by the drumbeat, Muffled Ruffles, it is the highest
honor given to those who have died in service to our country.
If there is a request for services please call Ken (408)251-5187.
Thanks to those who have volunteered to attend services for our
comrades and actually do.
