On Friday, June 10, the city of Louisville, KY said goodbye to her most famous son, Muhammad Ali. After a procession that took The Champ on one last ride through his hometown, there was a celebration of his life at the KFC Yum Center where the Ali family and leaders from all over the world were able to pay their last respects. It was a day where the community came together as one, as Ali would have wanted, to remember him and honor his lasting legacy.
I’m always proud of my hometown, but on last Friday Louisville showed the world just how great it can be.
