John Glenn's casket sits in the Statehouse rotunda on Friday afternoon.

Friday afternoon, John Glenn will lie in repose at the Ohio Statehouse. The rotunda will be open to the public from 12-8 p.m. for people to pay their respects to the pioneering astronaut and longtime Ohio Senator.

A platoon of Marines will accompany John Glenn's casket in a procession from the rotunda to Ohio State University on Saturday, beginning just after noon. Following the procession, a memorial service will be held at the OSU Mershon Auditorium at 2 p.m.

Glenn died on December 8, 2016, in Columbus. He was 95. Here is our original tribute to Glenn from that day.
