Yes she does, Mack. She truly is one. Her rendition of 'Wind Beneath
My Wings' really got the waterworks going for me and for many people
in Yankee stadium. She was obviously thanking all of the heroes of
the past 12 days. She was also thanking NYC and trying to give them
something back for giving her her start. She was shouting 'thank you,
thank you!' during the song and shouted her thanks to NYC at the end.
There have been many moments in this service that have been very
moving. The other one that really got to me, though was the Harlem
Boy & Girl Choir singing 'We Shall Overcome.' People were standing up
and holding hands. There is still hope in the world, people. We all
have to hold on to it as tightly as we can.
Peace & Love To All,
Mark E
