I watched part of the services today, which were quite lovely.

But I did find myself wondering ... was rain in the forecast for today before the funeral was scheduled?
Well, it was forecasted for here (In Phila.), and sometimes the forecast here is the same for MD/DC.

The services were indeed lovely and moving as well. The eulogies were delivered with such grace, especially Lady Margaret Thatcher.

I nearly had a major breakdown when an irish tenor sang, "Ava Maria"...for some reason, that song hits me right in a place where I just want to sit down and cry my eyes out! His voice was beautiful. *sniff*
