Broncos Pay Final Respects To Teammate
6th January, 2007 - 7:00 pm
AP - With an overflow crowd packing the church, the Denver Broncos on Saturday filed past the open casket of Darrent Williams, who was gunned down in a drive-by shooting on New Year's Day.

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell was among those at Great Commission Baptist Church, which is not far from where the 24-year-old Willliams grew up. More than an hour before the service, the line to get inside the 2,500-seat church stretched around the building.

Just before the service, Broncos players and staff members, accompanied by relatives and friends, entered through a side door and walked past the coffin. Many wiped away tears to say goodbye to "D' Will." [READ]
