And was one of the most important people in his life? I’m comforted as to how he will treat the rest of us...NOT!

I’m from the New Orleans area, and back in the 70s when Mahalia Jackson died, they didn’t bury her for 3 weeks! I don’t remember if it was summer or winter that she died, but we have pretty warm winters down here.

How long does he expect the poor woman to last before burial? It's been 6 days already and nothing has been decided. No wonder the world thinks we're barbarians. ;-)

My brother died on a Sunday morning. Viewing Monday night. Burial Tuesday morning. We considered the occasion important enough to change our schedules.

I'm a big believer in scheduling these things so out-of-town family can attend. But Obama and family should have been on the plane Wednesday headed to Hawaii. It's not like he doesn't have staff that could have set it all up for him.

Or at least bury the poor woman in a timely manner and then he can hold a memorial service next year when it's a more convenient time. {sarcasm off}

I think Obama’s trying to break the death to funeral endurance record set by James Brown.

How in the world did you come up with this juicy tidbit? This isn’t like it jumped out of the blue and said “here I am”.
