On a warm, humid Saturday morning, grieving loved ones gathered at The Basilica of Saint Mary in Minneapolis to honor Minnesota’s former House Speaker and her husband, whose shocking killings in an attack earlier this month stunned the nation.

Slain Minnesota Democratic House leader Melissa Hortman is honored at a funeral attended by former President Biden and former Vice President Kamala Harris. Gov. Tim Walz delivered a eulogy.

Hortman, a Democrat, will be the first woman and one of fewer than 20 Minnesotans accorded the honor. She will lie in state with her husband, Mark, and their golden retriever, Gilbert. Her husband was also killed in the June 14 attack, and Gilbert was seriously wounded and had to be euthanized.
