Homegoing Celebration Today

[MissBrattified]

That is too bad about the sound, because it was a great service! My husband tried to watch it with the girls from home and they couldn't really understand what was being said.

Hopefully there will be a DVD, because I'd like for my girls to watch it. My favorites were John McDonald & Stan Cook--and of course, anything Bro. McGruder has to say goes on my favorite list by default. Priscilla having the "last word" was great.

Melody--it was EXTREMELY hot in there. Yesterday and today. Yowza!!!

TalkLady & Melody--I want to know who you are and where you were sitting!!!

**There will never be another Priscilla McGruder** That woman was, is and always will be a great inspiration to me.

MissBrattified, I was sitting right next to a "heavy set" guy and right behind a lady with a bun on the BACK of her head, not the top. That really narrows it down for you. Doesn't it?

I had thought of going back to work yesterday but after my husband said he was going to the funeral, I took off another day but this time as Annual Leave. I'm a crier. So, the lady with the bun on the BACK of her head and I wiped tears during much of the service. It was good to see some people I had not seen in years. Maybe I even saw you!...lol

Me, too! Jeffrey fell asleep right after the funeral started and slept the whole time. I kept wiping my face with my hand because I forgot tissues, and then I finally remembered that Jeffrey had a handkerchief in his pants pocket. I fished it out and used it the rest of the service--until he finally woke up, and took it away from me. He gave me a very annoyed look, too. I guess I need to explain to him that boys are supposed to loan out their handkerchiefs to weepy women.

aw cute MissB, I felt so sorry for the children, it was long and hot, I had a very annoyed father in front of me, the children were restless, but those that remember having children understand.
