The Ford Funeral

I don't know what it is about funerals, especially Presidential ones. They always choke me up with all of the traditions. Maybe it's the Catholic in me, because we truly have such beautiful funerals, filled with tradition and glory. I have heard a Protestant say, "Boy those Catholics know how to do funerals!" I'd say the government knows how to do them as well for the Presidents. I cried during the Reagan funeral a couple of years ago and I'm choking up as well during the Ford funeral right now.
Well, goodbye Mr. President. Thank you for your service to our country! You didn't expect to be a President, but you served anyway.

Ok, Episcopalians can definately do funerals, too! What a tribute!
