Elizabeth Edwards’ oldest daughter eulogizes mom

Elizabeth’s daughter delivered a heartfelt eulogy for her mother.
Yes she did.
Did you catch any of it on CNN? Who was the sister who sang Amazing Grace? Sorry, but she was screeching and screaming IMO.
I was wondering who the sista was singing. She didnot sing good. Too much yelling.
Check this out. Wow! Just awesome. The melody is from an unknown slave? My Lord!
So sad. EE fought the good fight. I read her last FB entry it was poignant:
“The days of our lives, for all of us, are numbered. We know that. And yes, there are certainly times when we aren’t able to muster as much strength and patience as we would like. It’s called being human. But I have found that in the simple act of living with hope, and in the daily effort to have a positive impact in the world, the days I do have are made all the more meaningful and precious.”
Please please, someone find a cure for this dreadful disease!
