Senator Ted Kennedy's Funeral is underway. This is the picture from the 1st Funeral Procession to the JFK Presidential Library where he is in repose until his memorial service Friday night.
Some have raised the question as to whether Senator Kennedy deserves a Catholic Funeral because of Lack of Repentance for his misdeeds. One Thing is for sure Senator Kennedy was a quiet Catholic or maybe not a Catholic at all.
The Pope has been silent on his death.
Senator Kennedy's leadership is questionable. Chappaquiddick? Got off Manslaughter because he was a Kennedy? Never apologized to Mary Jo's parents? Expelled from Harvard? His only qualification to be a US Senator was he was JFK's Brother. He had no where to go but the US Senate. Unmentionable attacks on Chief Justice Roberts? President Bush? Some questioned whether he was worthy of a Catholic Funeral!
Was he the lion of the US Senate or Just the 1000 pound gorilla in the room?
In spite of all this he passed great legislation helping millions. It is all his legacy. The highest funeral cost in the death of Senator Kennedy is the loss of the man himself.
All the man had many human frailties, he accomplished great things.
One thing is for certain His Death Brings us to the end of an era.
