All my daughter's but 1 did not meet him. I took her today. I have never seen any former USA President that did not attend a funeral of a person that was a part of the Legislation. So disrespectful! John Robert Lewis got his head injuried fighting for people to vote and this current President is asking people to vote for him. Well my vote is no for our current President. If he cannot attend a funeral service for a long-time Congressman that's disrespectful a man that almost died for you and I to vote. My vote will be no for the current President

blessed and not stressed stressed he is busy getting you a check.

The truth of the situation is this: Respect is earned. These days of honor for Congressman Lewis shows how much respect he earned during an honorable life of service.

Please lay him to rest. To much.

[@judithdoyle6609]

We can never give back enough .....He should be given sainthood. Your disrespectful comments have no place and fortunately he would just laugh and pity you and simple mindedness

Bury this man. Quit riding him around

[@blessedandnotstressedpeace6624]

He was a good man and he deserves to be riding around. John Robert Lewis was my friend and he knew represented the people of all color. But we have a current President that has nothing and I mean nothing of the man Congressman John Robert Lewis was to so many people.

[@blessedandnotstressedpeace6624]

No bury you quickly because you must have not done anything to have a service for 6 days. Sorry you are mad at yourself for not being of something to make any difference.
