It wasn't until I saw the 10 o'clock news that I fully appreciated how many people lined Vermont and Slauson to greet the procession escorting the remains of Randal Simmons to the cemetery this afternoon. Most looked to be applauding or waving, rather than just watching. This photo is by Damian Dovarganes at AP, via Yahoo. Also, check out Gary Friedman's shot of the motorcade in the Times photo gallery.
