A public viewing held and celebration of life worship service at were held at West Point Baptist Church, and there was a concert at the Apostolic Church of God. West Point has been Albertina Walker’s lifelong church home, and she began singing in the youth choir at the age of 4.

As expected, thousands came out to pay their respects to the long-reigning Queen of Gospel Music, including celebrities and local politicians. Among those famous figures were Shirley Caesar, Dorothy Norwood, Tramaine Hawkins, Aretha Franklin, Judge Greg Mathis and Jesse Jackson, Jr. to name a few.
