Stevie Wonder's Performance at Rev. Lowery's Extravaganza in Atlanta

I attended civil right icon Rev. Joseph Lowery's 90th birthday party at Atlanta's Symphony Hall in the Woodruff Arts Center on Sunday night.  It was like a splashy, but classy church service replete with choir, toe tapping gospel singers, preachers, celebrities, politicians and members of the president's camera. CNN's Soldedad O'Brien moderated and performers included Jennifer Holliday, Tramaine Hawkins and Stevie Wonder. Delta Airlines named a new 757 plane for the beloved Lowery, which will take him to the dedication of the King Memorial in Washington next week.
