Mourning a loss that touched people from the streets of Delaware to the White House and beyond, President Barack Obama and Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton joined Vice President Joe Biden in bidding farewell Saturday to his eldest son, Beau.
The former Delaware attorney general died last Saturday of brain cancer. He was 46.
An overflow crowd of 1,000 gathered for the funeral at St. Anthony of Padua Roman Catholic Church, where Obama was to deliver a eulogy. Leading political figures also were there, including the U.S. Senate majority and minority leaders, Attorney General Loretta Lynch and her predecessor, Eric Holder, and other Cabinet officials.
Also paying their respects were mourners from across Delaware and beyond, who lined up hours in advance, drawn by their strong bonds to the Biden family.
