Today is Whitney Houston's Funeral. She will be remembered and her body will be buried in her native New Jersey.
Personally, I am sorry to hear of this loss. I am also sorry for the circumstances of her death and the years of substance dependence that preceded it.
New Jersey Governor, Chris Christie, ordered that the American Flag, at NJ public buildings, be lowered to half staff.
Wrong, sir!
The same tribute was done for Frank Sinatra when he passed. Sinatra evaded military service during World War II! The tribute for Frank was wrong. I think it's wrong, today, for Houston.
Lowering the flag to half staff is reserved for heroes. Whitney was a gifted entertainer, not a hero. I feel for the surviving family members of our real heroes.
