from the Washington National Cathedral:
We are honored to host Secretary Albright’s funeral service this Wednesday, April 27 at 11 am EST. President Biden will join former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary Of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and Albright’s daughters in eulogizing our first female Secretary of State.
As a trailblazing diplomat, a disciple of peace and an icon for women around the world, Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright was a gift to America and to the world. We join the nation in giving thanks for the life of this dedicated public servant, and hold the entire Albright family in our prayers.
Please note that this service is by invitation only. The public may watch a webcast of the service at
