The Rev. Al Sharpton reads a letter from President Barack Obama to Xea Myers 11-year-old daughter of Dwight Errington Myers, later known as Heavy D, during his funeral at Grace Baptist Church in Mount Vernon, N.Y., Nov. 18
NY Daily News: Even President Obama had nothing but love for Heavy D, the respected New York-bred rapper who was laid to rest Friday after a star-studded funeral in his Mount Vernon hometown.
The Rev. Al Sharpton, speaking during the service, invited the late rapper’s daughter, Xea, to the pulpit and read a statement to the 11-year-old.
“I want to read you something and I want you to keep this, Xea,” Sharpton said, before reading it and revealing that it came from the White House. Obama’s message offered condolences and praised the rapper for his “infectious optimism and many contributions to American music.”
The message drew a thunderous ovation from the 1,500 loved ones and friends gathered at Grace Baptist Church for the private service…..

And …. my most loved:
You know me, always like a bit of ‘Hey’ to end blissful days.
Better go get some sleep. But you know my record, all kinds of big things happen when I’m snoozing – eg that bin Laden business.
So, when I return tomorrow I’m expecting you to tell me that Rick Perry and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad held a joint press conference – live on Fox – during which they surrendered to the President.
And would you blame them? Look what happened bin Laden, Mubarak and Gaddafi/Gadhafi/Khadafy/Qaddafi under this President’s watch.
Night everyone. See you tomorrow 😉
