Ford in Grand Rapids, Michigan for Burial
Former U.S. President Gerald Ford will be buried in his hometown of Grand Rapids, Michigan Wednesday, ending a six-day period of public and private memorials.
Jimmy Carter, who defeated Mr. Ford in the 1976 presidential election, will deliver a eulogy at a funeral service in the late president's hometown church. Mr. Ford will later be buried on the grounds of his presidential museum.
The 38th president of the United States died last week in California at age 93. Thousands of people have been lining up for hours outside the museum to view Mr. Ford's body, where it has been lying in repose since Tuesday afternoon. During funeral services Tuesday in Washington's National Cathedral, President George W. Bush said Mr. Ford was a man whose character brought "calm and healing to one of the most divisive moments in our nation's history."
