A daughter's last goodbye: Meghan breaks down as thousands gather to pay tribute to war hero John McCain

McCain will be buried Sunday at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, in a private funeral service
UPDATED AUG 29, 2018

Meghan McCain broke down in tears as the body of her father John McCain arrived at the Arizona State Capitol building in Phoenix on Wednesday. The late senator's body was escorted by his family to lie in state and will be displayed for the public until Thursday.

McCain's remains were driven to the state capitol in a black hearse escorted by four policemen on motorcycles. An honor guard made up of veterans, servicemen, and members of law enforcement and firefighters greeted the casket.

McCain's wife Cindy, in her first public appearance since her husband's death, accompanied his body as did the couple's sons Jack, who is home from Afghanistan for the funeral, and Jimmy. Jack and Jimmy saluted their father's coffin as it was taken from the hearse.
