15 minuets into the funereal service for 33 year old Vanessa Collier , Pastor Ray Chavez refused to go on. Was he choked up at the death of a young person, the outpouring of love and grief by her family and friends? What stopped Pastor Ray Chavez from going on with the service was the realization that the person he was mourning had been gay.
