Thousands Attend Funeral
KENTUCKY....
Tuesday afternoon, at least 3,000 people attended the funeral of nine Cumberland County Mennonites killed last Friday in a crash with a tractor-trailer. The funeral was held inside the former Carhartt warehouse,the only place big enough to hold the crowd. Eight wooden coffins, handmade by those who knew the victims, were lined up across the front as an infant who died in the crash lay in a casket with his mother.
