"To eulogize Daddy is to leave something out" Alex Sanders funeral draws hundreds

Hundreds of people turned out for a funeral Thursday at Trinity Cathedral celebrating the life of the many-sided Alex Sanders, masterful storyteller and lawyer, prankster, former chief judge of the S.C. Court of Appeals and ex-president of the College of Charleston.

Instead of eulogies, the Easter-based service was drawn from the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer, with prayers, scripture readings and traditional hymns like “Nearer my God to Thee,” “For all the saints,” and “Joyful, joyful we adore thee” from Beethoven’s 9th Symphony. The one personal touch in the hourlong service was the Appalachian-type gospel tune that Alex Sanders had wanted at his funeral — “I’ll Fly Away.” It was sung by two females, an alto and a sorprano, from Charleston backed up by a mandolin and guitar. “Some bright morning when this life is over / I’ll fly away / To that
