Today we said farewell to Jack Sweet..

I'd just like to say that I was not planning on covering today’s event. The truth is that I'm am not very good with things like this. I don't like invading on people's privacy. I don't like interviewing people about serious subjects. Most importantly I just don't feel right about being at a cemetery with a video camera. I'd say that makes me a pretty bad reporter.

I was however convinced by many that it was the right thing to do. I did my best to keep my distance and only tape a few key moments while at the ceremony. I truly hope this is all fine with the family. If not I hope they know that all they have to do is contact me if they have any issues with anything on this page.
