I saw that. At first I thought it was Mrs. Ford, but thankfully it wasn't. I feel bad for the person who did. I hope they are ok.

The cameras were showing it for a minute before the anchor mentioned it. It looked like an elderly man to me. He seemed to be trying to get out of the row he was in before he passed out. It was a bunch of people very close though so I could have focused on the wrong guy.

Prayers to the person who collapsed. I also thought it might be Mrs. Ford. I am worried about her,she seems so frail. She has always been such a strong woman.

The elderly man that was leaning forward during the first speakers eulogy?
I thought he was going to fall forward.

I was afraid Henry Kissinger was falling asleep. I came in late so didn't see the person faint, but I feel so bad for all those people who have to stand...some of them are pretty old.

He was an 84 year old former congressman. Apparently he got first aid from Senator Frist, who is a doctor.
