Did you get a chance to hear Denyce Graves sing The Lord's Prayer at President Ford's funeral service in the cathedral? It was absolutely beautiful...as all of the music was imo.

President Ford...quite a different person and president from 2 of those former presidents sitting in the audience. You KNOW which ones I mean, I'm sure.

I have to be honest, it has gone on to long for me to watch, three days of it. Oh, I have respect for President Ford and admire his wife for what she faced and beat. My prayers are for the family for sure.

I was impressed with President Ford's choice of music when he was taken from his California town and put in Air Force 1....

..as they were carrying his casket down the stairs, they, of course, played Hail to the Chief....

...Immediately following this was All Hail the Power of Jesus Name...gave me chills, it was so touching!
