Garrison Brown is being honored for his service in the military.

The Nevada National Guard shared a glimpse on Facebook into the ceremony held in Garrison’s honor at the Clark County Armory on Sunday.

Garrison's mother and father, Sister Wives stars Janelle and Kody Brown, could be seen at the service alongside their sons Gabriel, 22, Hunter, 27, and members from the 1st Squadron, 221st Cavalry, which Garrison was a part of.

Photos shared by the National Guard showed several solemn moments from the service, including soldiers folding Garrison’s burial flag and giving it to an emotional Janelle, who accepted it. Gabriel, who sat next to her, also appeared teary-eyed during the moment.

Another photo showed officers performing a gun salute in his honor outside, while another snap captured Janelle, Gabriel and Kody as well as his remaining wife, Robyn Brown, bowing their heads in prayer during the ceremony.

The rest of the pictures shared by the National Guard show soldiers from the 221st Cavalry posing alongside a photo of Garrison in his service uniform. A black hat from the squadron and his light green service boots were placed on a pedestal next to his portrait.

“Known for his adventurous spirit, Brown traveled extensively, exploring multiple countries and continents. He had a passion for comedy, amateur craftsmanship and adventurous photography, with his night sky photography particularly moving those who viewed it,” the Nevada National Guard wrote in their post.

“The entire Nevada National Guard community shares in the sorrow of losing Staff Sgt. Robert Garrison Brown. We recognize the profound impact of his absence on our fellow members and the 221st Cavalry family, who are deeply affected by the loss of their trusted companion,” they concluded the post.
