Coincidentally alnost exactly 3 miles from my hone as well. I'm in Crafton with my backyard bordering on the busway.
Even though I work in news (WSHH, WJAS, AM Newstalk 1360)I somehow missed the notice of this funeral. As a result my son Andy and I picked that day to do a little geocaching at Carnegie park. We finished up around 1:30 in the afternoon and were headed down Forsythe to Main Street and then home.
The town was GRIDLOCKED! Police and military everywhere. I dodn't have a clue as to what was going on so as soon as we got home I called Wife who delivers flowers.
She had made several deliveries to the funeral and so she filled me in on what was going on. I understand there were so many cars in the funeral they streatched all along Washington road back past the Carlynton Field!
I'm also outraged - but not surprised - at Lt Gov Baker Knoll. Gonna give her folks an earful!
