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

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.

The public was invited to attend the funeral, but the church released a statement saying that they had reached capacity for the service.
