Idk if all the neg feedback is from ppl that have never lost a loved 1, a parent, a father in particular, but when u love & respect someone a great deal u want 2 send them off in a loving, respectful, meaningful way. To have raised high & rocked/danced home does that. This "honor guard" did just that. It's in their name, folks. They're HONORING the departed w/ their "show". Which, in my humble opinion isn't what I'd call a "SHOW".
