I missed the funeral but I am glad all the living First Ladies showed up.

No presidents?

@Gefn

All first ladies attended the funeral along with Joe Biden, Bill Clinton, and Kamala Harris with her husband, what's-his-name.

No doubt! Melania Trump Is the classiest First Lady ever!

Michael is even more manly standing next to her!

What a contrast.

Not a lot of influencers who have inhabited our gyms and fitness centers with their mobile video shoots like locusts upon the harvest set up shop in rehab centers and nursing homes to portray not the latest viral fitness craze, but folks just hoping to walk to the bathroom unassisted one more time.

When Jimmy Carter was wheeled into his wife’s tribute, suited and covered in a blanket bearing an image of the couple, some on social media reacted poorly. How, exactly, they expected a 99 year old man who has been in hospice since February and just lost his wife of nearly 80 years is supposed to look was not addressed.   ...
