💔💔💔

I wld have expected an overflow crowd, actually service that was held in a park, in Flint. Would have accommodated his constituency and dignitaries. Please explain the vacant pews.

[@donielledowling-taylor5348]

I feel the same way.... on a Saturday tooo... this is crazy!!! they did not like him for speaking the truth... if it was anyone else it would have been standing room only!!!!

[@gloriacato7761]

Waiting on AK COLE. Who covered him, to weigh in. According to comments on that site. People claimed to be buying plane tickets. Presidents Trump, Obama and Putin , were available. I'm being facetious, but am curious re " empty seats." ..All talk, no action

[@BettyThompson-qn7cl]

🙏🏾😢🙏🏾

[@DamingezJohnson]

🤦‍♂️

[@donielledowling-taylor5348]

One of a Kind.... I believe he was Murdered!!! God Have Mercy on His Soul!!!! I know his family and friends are Missing him already.... including Mr. RL.
