My father was an exceptional man.
He was born in 19...
- What the hell is going on now? - There's someone in there.
I knew it! I knew it!
He was born in 1930...
Shit.
What the fuck!
What the fuck you doing in my father's coffin?
Edward, I miss you!
Leave me with my Edward!
My picture. My beautiful memories!
No, Mama, don't. Give me...
You bastard!
My father!
My father was an exceptional man.
Did he have his faults?
Yeah.
But he worked hard for his family.
All I wanted to do today
was tell him how much we all loved, cherished and respected him.
Is that really too much to ask for?
So, maybe he loved Dreamgirls more than most men.
But, hey, life is complicated.
We do our best.
And Dad, he did his best.
One thing he did was teach us to chase after our dreams.
So, when you leave here today,
I want you to remember my father for who he truly was,
a loving, kind, gentle man, that never judged anyone,
who never cast disparaging remarks
or held prejudice against any race, creed, gender,
or height.
And if I turn out to be just half the man that my father was,
then the child I'm planning on having with my beautiful wife
will be truly blessed.
Thank you.
