Three Thousand Attend Sean Taylor's Funeral

Yesterday, a crowd of about three thousand people surrounded the funeral of Redskin's Sean Taylor. It was a very emotional atmosphere and also very packed out one. Lines were almost a half mile long trying to get to the sight of where Sean was being buried. Many people flew in from all over to attend the young man's burial.
In addition, his daughter Jackie and girlfriend were in attendence. Some of the other team players arrived in Miami for the funeral as well. Superstars such as Devon Hester, Regggie Wayne and Mark Ellis were all in attendence to show their support and sympathy for the young star. "Today my heart is broken," said LaVar Arrington, wiping away tears as he recalled his two years as Taylor's teammate with the Redskins. "I'll get through it. We'll all get through it."
Sean Taylor, a role model in the making, will be missed by many and unforgotten by all. In honor of Taylor, every player in the NFL wore a sticker with the number 21 on the back of their helmets. In addition, every game which was announced had a prayer said for Taylor before it.
