Mrs. Rosa Parks - Funeral Services Information

Good Afternoon,

Following are links to view some of the funeral highlights for the mother of the modern day Civil Rights Movement in America. In particular, the moving remarks from Dr. Charles Adams, Pastor-Hartford Memorial Baptist Church (Detroit), Minister Louis Farrakhan, Nation of Islam, Rev. Al Sharpton, and Bishop T.D. Jakes from the following links.

The words of justice, responsibility, taking up one's cross, etc.., resonates a call to action, but most importantly a call to see that all things in this life we are blessed with are on the shoulders and backs of our beautiful ancestors. The message is clear, we have a responsibility.......
