Americans have been paying tribute to US Sen. John McCain, who died August 25 at the age of 81.
McCain's memorial services took place over five days in three cities.
They began Wednesday in the Republican's home state of Arizona, where there was a public viewing at the state Capitol in Phoenix.
On Thursday, McCain's body was flown to the East Coast so he could lie in state at the US Capitol on Friday.
Former Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush delivered eulogies Saturday at the Washington National Cathedral. McCain was buried Sunday at the US Naval Academy Cemetery in Annapolis, Maryland.

Former President Barack Obama delivered a eulogy and praised McCain's efforts to push the nation to rise above "mean and petty" politics. "So much of our politics, our public life, our public discourse can seem small and mean and petty, trafficking in bombast and insult, and phony controversies, and manufactured outrage," Obama said. "It's a politics that pretends to be brave and tough, but in fact is born of fear. John called on us to be bigger than that. He called on us to be better than that."

Former President George W. Bush spoke about his relationship with McCain and how their rivalry melted away over time. Bush defeated McCain to become the GOP's presidential nominee in 2000. "Back in the day, he could frustrate me. And I know he'd say the same thing about me. But he also made me better," Bush said.

Meghan McCain pays tribute to her father during the service. "We gather here to mourn the passing of American greatness, the real thing, not cheap rhetoric from men who will never come near the sacrifice he gave so willingly, nor the opportunistic appropriation of those who live lives of comfort and privilege while he suffered and served," she said.
