Lena Horne Funeral

Lena Horne Funeral

Jazz great Lena Horne, who died Sunday at age 92, was remembered by hundreds of mourners at New York's St. Ignatius Loyola church on Friday (May 14).

Among those who honored Horne were singers Alicia Keys and Janet Jackson. Keys gives Horne credit for being a heavy influence on the music industry and women. When Horne passed Janet Jackson tweeted ‘The passing of Lena Horne, a remarkable woman, is truly a great loss.’

"[She] was so many ideas existing all at the same time, in the same space, and they were all conflicting, and they were all true," Lumet said, according to reports. "I've tried to sum her up and I can't. ... Summing up really means it's over, and I think she's not over and that she's quite infinite."
