Kevin Costner’s speech at Whitney Houston’s funeral

Thank you to Dion for this honor and the church for treating my wife and me gracefully. Whitney Houston and I shared a bond through our Baptist upbringing. Despite her fame, Whitney often doubted herself. During “The Bodyguard” screen test, she was nervous and uncertain, but ultimately proved her talent. Whitney was not just good enough; she was great. Her legacy inspires young girls to dream big. Whitney, escorted by angels, is now in heaven, singing before God, knowing she is more than good enough.
