Re: John Meacham, Presidential Historian and BIographer

I heard yesterday that Prince Charles was supposed to represent GB.  Has anyone seen him?  I have a feeling he didn't make it.

It's one of the most beautiful funeral services I've ever seen!

I didn't see the entire program, but laughed and cried thru out. Mr. Simpson was terrific and I felt so bad for George W. I'm thinking President Bush was a very beloved man.

He's there. They showed him talking to Colin Powell.

I was really impressed with not only John's tribute, but everyone else who got up and spoke. Was nice to hear about the funny things President Bush did/said. It was a wonderful service. Very classy.

 

And I loved the music too.
