The funeral service for former NYC mayor, Ed Koch, was held today and it was, without a doubt, one of the best I've ever seen. Koch was quite the quintessential New Yorker. A brash, outspoken guy who didn't care if someone disagreed with him. He was also full of humor and it showed during the eulogies today. Speakers included current Mayor, Mike Bloomberg and Bill Clinton, who cut short a trip to Japan to speak at the funeral on behalf of the country.

If you get the opportunity to watch any coverage on the tv news or go to YouTube to see the speeches I suggest you take the time to do so.

Here's the entire service:



Bloomberg starts at 15:50 on the video and is followed by Bill Clinton.
