I did as well. I'm half Irish, my dad's name was Danny. That plus Meghan's words about her dad choked me up.

Same. Your coverage this week was so touching. His service during life, and the service memorializing him, were extraordinary.

Such a beautiful song with so many memories attached to it. I felt like I was at my dad's funeral three years ago. Love and light to the McCain family. Fair winds and following seas. May your memory be eternal.

I have no control of my tears when I hear this song. It was even more intense hearing it at John McCain’s funeral.
