@Mominohio: Probably over the top for the average Joe but she was an entertainer with an incredible voice so beloved by so many so for this particular lady this was just perfect.
i'm sorry it has seemed to upset you so much

I did not know that it was a cultural thing to change the clothing of a deceased person lying in a coffin. That I found that astounding (edited to add "disturbing".)
And, before you all start, I LOVED Aretha - she was one of the greatest voices certainly in my lifetime.

@Alicew...
I don't recall anyone saying ... nor do I believe ... it's a "cultural thing" to change a deceased's clothing. Where did you get that idea? Perhaps the family decided to do it in this instance.

I watched a little. It is way, way over the top for my taste and way too long. I just changed the channel. I know someone who canceled a Drs. appointment to see this live. Different strokes... wonderful we get to express our opinion. Even if others are down right mean to an opposing view.

@chickenbutt they didn't loan them. They all agreed to drive in a procession after the first lady of the church where the funeral is being held put out a request. She said some people drove from other states because they wanted to be a part of this.
It was a seven mile line.
