Mourners filed into Houston's Church Without Walls Saturday — some wearing black, others in vivid shades of blue — to honor former Mayor and U.S. Rep. Sylvester Turner at his funeral, as a montage of the prolific orator’s speeches played in the sanctuary.

On Saturday, late Houston mayor and congressman Sylvester Turner was laid to rest during services at the Church Without Walls.

A spokesperson for Democratic U.S. Rep. Sylvester Turner of Texas says he has died just two months after taking office and hours after attending President Donald Trump's address before Congress.
