For those of us unable to attend the funeral in person, let's treat this as the discussion threadas we follow along via video stream or off the air.
As was mentioned in the another thread, the following sources have video streams available (while they last) in addition to the service being carried live on the Liberty Channel & INSP:
WSET
WSLS
The Liberty Channel
Please use this thread to offer insights and reaction to the events as they unfold.

I'm keeping a tab of "Black jacket, white shirt, red tie" speakers.
We're at one so far.
That's the biggest tribute to Jerry.

Duke Westover's prayer already has me a bit weepy and I don't even know that man.

Believe it or not we have INSP here in Houston so I'm not needing the webstream after all.
