The Whigham Funeral Home had the distinct honor of undertaking all the affairs of Mr. John Russell Houston when he died in 2003. Ms. Whitney Elizabeth Houston, family members and friends gave him the appropriate send off in the glare of relative publicity. There were no photos leaked to the public. In other words, the Houston Family must be been satisfied with the good service hence their decision to use the same funeral home at their most sorrowful and trying time. I doubt a funeral home would betray it's credentials by violating it's professional, moral and ethical codes.
So when I heard that the National Enquirer had a photo of Dear Whitney in her casket, I thought it was too bad to be true. Of course, like most people, curiosity got the better of me. In a single click there she was, serenely at peace, completely beautiful.....perhaps taking a nap as if waiting for a gentle nudge from someone on her staff to wake her up for the next show. Her surroundings betrayed my wishful thinking and so it was with a loud thud that I met with the reality of vision. Rest in perfect peace Whitney.
A couple of years ago there was a public viewing for Mr. Teddy Pendergrass, not a single photo was made public. On the other hand Ms. Whitney Houston's family and friends attended a very private viewing. How on God's given earth did the National Enquirer get such a photo, who conspired to betray her? The Bible speaks of "household wickedness" and also says that "there is a friend that sticks closer than a brother" - a sister in this case. I would like to know which family member or friend made a tidy and undoubtedly hefty profit from the untimely passing of their loved one. What he/she/they fail to remember is that Whitney Elizabeth Houston is a spirit - she saw you then and she can still see you now. Be very careful.
Some people will do anything for money!
