I stopped by Invesco Field tonight. It was quite a beautiful scene. There is a full moon tonight. The bronze horse statues that lead up the the main entrance are surrounded by rising steam from the cold air and the waterfall. There is a lovely memoriam at the base of the waterfall - candles, broncos jerseys, hats, notes, cards, momemtos. It was somehow helpful to go see this place - so many happy moments here and now this. Sadness.
I also drove by the area where he was shot at 11th in Speer. The limo is gone now, but there is still some minor broken glass on the street. Across the way there is also another candlelight memorial by fans. It's a cold, snowbound city corner - a very cold and dark place to die. At least Darrent was surrounded by friends and teammates when he passed...and I hope Javon held him tight.
My prayers to all in Bronco land and the Williams family tonight.
PS: I hope there is an organized memorial all Bronco fans can attend very soon...we need to grieve together.
