Former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor will be memorialized this week in the nation's capital.
O'Connor, who died on Dec. 1 at age 93, will lie in repose in the great hall of the Supreme Court on Monday, where the public will have the ability to pay respects following a private ceremony. Supreme Court police officers will serve on the casket team, and honorary pallbearers will be designated by the family.
A 1999 portrait of O'Connor will be on display while she lies in repose.
Her funeral will be held at the Washington National Cathedral on Tuesday. The service will not be open to the public, but journalists covering the event will be in attendance.
President Joe Biden and the Supreme Court's chief justice, John Roberts, will give eulogies at the funeral as will O'Connor's son Jay.
