Isn't that strange? I find the exact opposite emotion. I well remember the sad cadence of the drums during JFK's funeral, but that was a different time, and a different circumstance.

I thought that the procession today was beautiful, and I will always remember that The Battle Hymn of the Republic was played while the casket was carried up the capital steps. Different times, different memories.

I'm not ashamed to say this......

That's when I lost it.
