Summary edit

Description
English: Andrews Air Force Base, Md. (Dec. 30, 2006) – A Sailor assigned to the Ceremonial Honor Guard, along with members of the United States Air Force band stand at the ready as the casket of Gerald R. Ford, 38th President of the United States, disembarks a VC-25 Presidential aircraft at Andrews Air Force Base, during a national farewell funeral procession honoring the former commander in chief. In a proclamation formally announcing his death, President Bush referred to the former president as “a true gentleman who reflected the best in America’s character.” President Ford will lie in state at the Capitol Rotunda where the public will be able to pay their respects. The actual mermorial service will be held at the Washington National Cathedral on Jan 2. His final resting place will be in his hometown of Grand Rapids, Michigan at a site just north of the Gerald R. Ford Museum. U.S. Air Force photo Tech. Sgt. Christopher J. Matthews (RELEASED)
