Amazing: Over 1100 Strangers Attend Funeral For Family-less El Paso Victim (Video)
Sometimes we forget there is more good in the world than bad. This is a great reminder of that.
“Antonio Basco stood in front of his wife’s casket for two hours Friday hugging strangers. The El Paso man initially thought no one would show up for his wife’s visitation service. His wife, Margie Reckard, 63, was killed when a gunman opened fire at a Walmart. The couple had no relatives in the area. Basco walked into the La Paz Faith Memorial and Spiritual Center to a storm of applause and a procession of people wanting to hug him. The building was at capacity with 400 mourners. Outside, another 700 waited in nearly 100-degree heat to pay respects, according to funeral organizers. “People were telling me they came from different faiths, different cities. It’s just incredible how much love and support every single one of you has shown,” Reckard’s grandson, Tyler, said.”
