Police did a wonderful job leading the possession to cemetery and showing their respect and keeping everyone safe. Seen a few with a full salute as we went by. On lookers with somber faces paying their respects. TV camera's getting their story. All this with it raining. Was one idiot who pulled out directly in front of a cousin in the possession and around everyone else parked on the sides of the streets. Sure hope the police got him.
Thought the service was really great and ended with a perfect end. Sharpest looking UK Blue casket ever. Tremendous respect for coach stoops, ad mitch barnhart, and the UK team. Was pretty neat seeing them come through with the game ball and gifts for big brother. Benny Snell spent the most time at the casket. LB Kash Daniel brought a little football and you could tell he was a bit emotional. Marco wanted to be a LB just like Kash. TE CJ Conrad carried a big box gift. I'm a Kentucky fan but this team will always be remembered now as one of my favorites regardless if they win another game or not.
Got to say it was the 2nd most emotional funeral for me, the top being my brother's Brad. Most funerals I can make it through without breaking a tear after Brad's but Marco's was able to bring the emotion out. But tears of happiness and joy. I'm sure they're having a ball up north in the clouds of Heaven maybe even a football game. Marco was so loved and will be missed but we know he's just waiting on us to come for the party.
