Three U.S. presidents were in attendance to celebrate the life of Colin Powell, the late Army general, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff and Secretary of State.
Powell’s son, Michael delivered a stirring eulogy at his father’s funeral saying “The example of Colin Powell does not call on us to emulate his resume…It is to emulate his character and his example as a human being. We can strive to do that. We can choose to be good.”
