Retired Justice Sandra Day O'Connor will lie in repose at the Supreme Court on Dec. 18, with a funeral service at the National Cathedral the following day, the court said Monday.
The first woman on the Supreme Court, O'Connor died Friday at age 93 in Phoenix. She stepped down from the court in 2006 after serving as a justice for more than 24 years.
Members of the public will be able to pay respects at the court from 10:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday, following a private ceremony. Tuesday's service at the National Cathedral is private and by invitation only, the court said.
The family has asked that donations be made to iCivics, the group she founded to promote civics education, the court said.
