The light fades to darkness. The ceremony continues.

Learning what we did of Senator Ted's penchant for doing things in a special way, this seems so fitting.

8. Thanks, God

..for throwing in the lightning as a final touch.

9. Haunting.

The illuminated mansion. The flag at half-staff. The lightning in the background. Mixed with the eternal flame. Just haunting.

6. I wish I could see the presentation of the flag to Vicky. But this is so fitting.

Teddy will always be remembered and he was put to rest in glorious way.

[TheCowsCameHome]

11. All of us wish that, too. We will just have to imagine..........

Farewell, Ted.

10. His grand daughter ...... "I can't see anything"

As she was about to read her remarks. She was crushed because she might not have been able to read her words.

And now she's weeping.

And so am I.
