Just wow.

I've spent a very small amount of time in Lancaster County and have a feel for what kind of people these folks are, but I wouldn't have thought that they would do something so selfless as this.

Indeed DFF. I was very moved after reading the article.

Very well done.

Course there were more republican voters and lawmakers boycotting gay funerals this month.

Just mentioning.

Republican LAWMAKERS?

That's a lie.

And Fred Phelps' group is an extremist group and does not represent the mainstream of the Republican party. And they don't protest gay funerals...they protest high profile funerals (military etc) to spread the word that God is punishing us because we are tolerant of homosexuality.

Do some research.

And maybe start a new thread next time instead of dirtying up one that was dedicated to a group that stands for nothing but family and peace.

The world needs more people like this...forgive instead of revenge and hate.

My hat goes off to them.

Wow this dipstick never quits drooling from the mouth does he. Geez in a post about some people who forgive you bring up your stupid crap? Go crawl back in the hole you came from you fricken idiot!!!

Wow... thats incredible. Having the ability to do something like that after what that guy did.

And then there are those Westboro Babtist Church nutjobs who were actually going to protest at the Amish girl's funerals. Thank god they backed down when a radio guy promised to give them an hour of airtime if they didn't do it.
