Heavy D was remembered with laughter and tears at his funeral on Friday. Diddy and Usher were among the celebrities in attendance, and the Rev. Al Sharpton delivered a message for his young daughter, which he said was directly from President Barack Obama. Sharpton read briefly from the note for 11-year-old Xea Myers; it offered the young girl words of encouragement.
