President Biden is set to deliver a eulogy for Ethel Kennedy, the wife of the late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy (D-N.Y.), during a memorial service Wednesday afternoon in Washington.

Kennedy died Oct. 10 at the age of 96 due to complications from a stroke , her family announced earlier this month. She is survived by nine children, including independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

In his message following her death, Biden called Ethel a “dear friend” and said “through it all, Ethel’s story was the American story.”

The remarks from the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle are scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. EDT.

INTEGRITY is something magats know nothing about. SINCERITY is another character trait magats know nothing about. RESPECT is absolutely vacant from magats vocabulary. Thank you President Biden for once again showing all of the traits American voters look for and to. Vonshitshispants and shayD vance DO NOT BELONG in the White House ever! No matter what you do? VOTE BLUE
