The final resting place of Loy Strasner is at the northwest section of El Reno Cemetery. His is a large upright marker that is adorned with numerous logos depicting his service (RAF, USN, USMS, U.S. Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans, and Royal Canadian Air Force). Also etched in this marker are silhouettes of his four daughters, a long winding road to the gates of heaven, a ring of keys, stop watch, and at the very bottom Loy on his motorcycle.

This last long ride I now begin, praying heaven's gates will open at the other end.
