Slain abortion doctor eulogized as generous
By ROXANA HEGEMAN, Associated Press Writer
WICHITA, Kan. Hundreds of people gathered Saturday to honor slain abortion provider Dr. George Tiller, eulogized by a longtime friend as a passionate and generous man who repeatedly overcame difficult challenges.
Tiller's funeral at College Hill United Methodist Church also drew small groups of protesters. Police and federal marshals provided heavy security.
Tiller, one of the nation's few providers of late-term abortions, was killed by a gunshot last Sunday in the foyer of his own church, Reformation Lutheran, while he was serving as an usher and his wife was singing in the choir.
His family had the funeral at the Methodist church to accommodate the large number of mourners.
His son, Maury, said the manner of his father's death resulted in an unimaginable outpouring of love and support for the family.
But he added: "I struggle with the manner he was welcomed into heaven."
Others recalled personal quirks that made him human.

56,000 were killed in Buchenwald...and the world justafiaby, and understandably condemns the holocaust and hunted down and executed the perpetrators.
By his own admission, Tiller butchered 60,000 and more, and yet a corrupt law, that has protected the practioners in this gruesome holocaust, protected the man from the true rule of law.
Anyone blind to the sick, evil irony of that have accepted a deparved set of circumstances and strong delusion.
I mourn Tiller's family at the loss of their father and grandfather. I doubt seriously that they knew the full and graphic nature of what he was involed in.
But I absolutely refuse to mourn the fact that he, Dr. Tiller, a bloody, gruesome killer of fully formed babies...who were alive, who could FEEL THE PAIN of being literally ripped asunder, will himself murder no more.
THE GRUESOME TRUTH OF THE ABORTION HOLOCAUST & THE DEATH OF DR. TILLER [Warning: A graphic photo of death & dismemberment]
It is the grimmest of ironies that one of the most savage, barbaric acts of evil in history began in one of the most modernized societies of its time, where so many markers of human progress became tools of human depravity: science that can heal, used to kill; education that can enlighten, used to rationalize away basic moral impulses; the bureaucracy that sustains modern life, used as the machinery of mass death, a ruthless, chillingly efficient system where many were responsible for the killing, but few got actual blood on their hands.Barack Obama April 24, 2009, Holocaust Remebernce Day, Chicago Sun Times.
Well said!
NO!
Where most of Tiller's “charities” self serving, and supportive of his bloody trade?
YES!
A bit presumptuous, at best.
He was slain in a Lutheran Church where he was an usher. Why was his funeral in a Methodist Church?
I hope Tiller’s killer is let off on a technicality. Let’s see how the left reacts when someone they hate gets to skirt the consequences of their actions because someone didn’t cross an I or dot a T.
Why not hold the funeral in a college football stadium if larger is what they wanted?
He became a millionaire, making absolute blood money and filthy lucre off of the gruesome, bloody death of little babies.
A sicker, more depraved thing in our society is hardly imaginable.
The picture at the link above lays all of the apologists and all of the PC speak concerning this practice to ash. It is a depraved, bloody, sick, genocidal holocaust.
I cannot and do not mourn the fact that his baby killing days are over.
What is the matter with this church? It can't possibly be a Christian church...
I feared this would happen. This is why pro-lifers should condemn the killing, even though Tiller was a repulsive person.
squishy is squishy
Not much difference in the screwed up pro abortion churches around here.
“Christian Churches”? Reformation Residue!
Let it go!
The left never suffers for the actions of the loons on the left.
We do not need to voice an opinion about the shooting of abortionists.
Those babies really put up a tough fight, but he nailed them in the end.
In the peculiar sense that Tiller’s Lutheran church is Christian, so also is this Methodist church.
The fact that his son said that means he didn't have a problem with the 60,000 abortions.
The Mainline Protestant Churches are run by democrats at the highest levels. They're pro-choice.
