Meyer, who coached the Blue Demons for 42 years before retiring in 1984, died Friday, March 17 at age 92. (AP Photo/Nam Y. Huh)CHICAGO (AP) - They mourned, of course. But along with the tears, there were enough smiles and laughs to warm up a bone-chilling morning.

Ray Meyer's funeral was Tuesday, a day to celebrate the life of DePaul's greatest basketball coach.

"He was a man who changed who I am," said Mark Aguirre, one of Meyer's best players. "You have so many people who impact your life. My mother impacted it as a kid and when it was time for me to grow up as a man, coach Meyer impacted me as a man. He taught me different things that are important in life."
