I just saw a couple of clips. Made me tear up, especially seeing George W.H. Bush's service dog Sully.
Bob Dole being lifted out of his wheelchair to give a proper salute at the coffin made me cry too.
I saw Sully and I saw Bob Dole too. I had heard that his family got him Sully after Mrs. Bush died but I can't recall where so I don't have anything to back that up. His family thought Sully would offer him some comfort.
I was very moved by Bob Dole too. He was going to stand & salute or die trying. He's 95 now.
