      I used to think that people that passed on before me were looking down from Heaven above. However, scripture tells us that people do not go to Heaven or to hell at death. They don’t go anywhere-but they wait in their graves for the resurrection.

    The Clark Sisters always give their all when they sing but you can see how much it meant to them to sing for Aretha's funeral, from Karen being unable to speak in the beginning, to Dorinda's speaking for the group, Jacky smiling at the memory of singing with her, and Twinkie tearing up behind the organ. Not to mention Aretha sang at their mother's funeral 20+ years before, and before then Twinkie sang this same song for Rev. Franklin's funeral. What a way for them to show their appreciation to their friend.

    I still watch this even a year & 1/2 later! I love This whole performance & it never gets old. Jacky holding down the low part. Dorinda w/ her subtle, sweet, jazzy riffs & Adkins. Karen doing the amazing things only she can do. The legendary Twinkie on the organ & giving you that growl & holler. Kierra coming through strong w/ the background vocals. J Drew on drums. And who ever was on bass was killing it!

    Your all see how amazed Rev. jessie Jackson was at Twinkie’s voice that he walked closer. I can only imagine being there you could really hear her. I remember seeing them in concert a few years ago and Twinkies voice is so powerful she actually tones it down so she won’t over sing them .

    Some of these comments are sad. People forget the clark sisters are legendary are were adored by Aretha Franklin and vice versa. It takes a lot of courage and strength to sing at anyones funeral for someone that was dear to your heart. Imagine putting your grief to the side and singing your heart out. It may not have been their best performance but it from the heart, with love and in tribute to Ms Franklin. Half of yall cant even hold a note let alone echo your voice... 🤦‍♀️
