Obama to deliver remarks at Cummings's funeral

Former President Barack Obama will reportedly speak at the funeral of late Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.).

"On Friday, @BarackObama will attend the service for @RepCummings," tweeted Obama spokesperson Katie Hill.

She added that Obama "will deliver remarks about the remarkable life and legacy of one of this country’s finest public servants” at the request of Cummings's wife and Maryland Democratic Party Chair Maya Rockeymoore Cummings.

Cummings died last week at age 68. He was chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee, one of the three panels leading an impeachment probe into President Trump. His office said he died from "longstanding health challenges."

Obama said in a statement that he and former First Lady Michelle Obama were "heartbroken" over Cummings's death.
