Ted Kennedy Funeral Begins
Senator Ted Kennedy’s funeral is underway at the Basilica of Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Mission Hill. the Mass is being led by Rev. Donald Monan.
Among the attendees are President Barack Obama, and his wife Michele, Hilary Clinton and former President Clinton, former President George W. Bush, former President Jimmy Carter, Vice President Joe Biden and his wife Jill.
Ted Kennedy Jr. had this to say about his father, recalling how the senator loved “everything French - cheese, wine, and women,” and when the laugher quieted he told a story that made eyes fill with tears. As a 12-year-old, Ted Kennedy Jr. lost a leg to bone cancer and that winter his dad took him sledding after a snowstorm. Ted Kennedy Jr. slipped and fell on the ice and told his father he would never be able to climb up the hill outside their home in Washington, D.C.
“He lifted me up in his strong gentle arms and said something I will never forget,” Ted Kennedy Jr. said. “I know you can do it. There is nothing you can’t do. We are going to climb that hill together even if it takes us all day.”
An era has come to a close. Somewhat of a loss for myself to see Sen. Ted Kennedy pass and sure for many here in the USA.
We wish the senator peace and may the living God Almighty YHWH remember Ted Kennedy when the time of resurection will be with us all.
A hard reminder for all of us humans, that one day we will go away to, until dead is removed from all humans by YHWH God of our Universe.
