Following the death over the weekend of George Herbert Walker Bush, all five living presidents are set to attend Bush's funeral Wednesday at the National Cathedral in Washington.
One of those presidents, Bush's son George W. Bush, will deliver a eulogy at the service, as will former U.S. Senator Alan Simpson, former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, and author and historian Jon Meacham.
In addition, President Trump and the first lady will attend the funeral, as will former Presidents Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and Jimmy Carter. Despite longstanding enmity between the current president and the Bush family, the Bushes reportedly asked that Trump attend the service. Children of former presidents Johnson, Nixon, and Ford will also attend.
According to CNN, among the thousands in attendance are expected to be several current and former foreign world leaders. These include former President Lech Walesa of Poland, former British Prime Minister John Major, former Japanese Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda, former Kuwaiti Prime Minister Nasser al-Mohammed al-Ahmed al-Sabah, and Prince Charles of Wales.
After Bush died Saturday at age 94, his body was brought to Washington where his casket lay in state at the U.S. Capitol starting on Monday. A motorcade will bring the casket to National Cathedral, where the funeral is set to begin at around 11 a.m.
