Several days of memorials have begun for Sen. John McCain, who died of brain cancer on August 25 at age 81. Services began Wednesday in his home state of Arizona and continue through Sunday, when he will be buried at the U. S. Naval Academy.
Members of the Arizona National Guard carry Sen. John McCain’s casket into the rotunda at the Arizona Capitol on Wednesday. « Thank you for the privilege of serving you and for the rewarding life that service in uniform and in public office has allowed me to lead, » McCain said in a farewell statement released two days after his death.
