Former President George H.W. Bush will be honored with a state funeral Wednesday at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.

The service is set to feature multiple members of the Bush family, including a eulogy from former President George W. Bush, the late president’s eldest child, and readings from three of the 41st president’s granddaughters.

Here’s a look at the sprawling Bush family ahead of the funeral.

The children

Bush and his wife Barbara had six children, five of whom are still alive: George W., Jeb, Neil, Marvin and Dorothy.

George W. and Jeb followed in their father’s political footsteps. George W. was twice elected governor of Texas before winning the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections. Jeb served two terms as the governor of Florida and unsuccessfully sought the Republican nomination for president in the 2016 election cycle.

Neil is a Texas businessman who currently serves as the chairman of Points of Light, the nonprofit organization dedicated to volunteer service that was founded by his father.

He also dabbled in politics during the 2016 presidential race: After his brother Jeb dropped out of the GOP primary race, he and his wife Maria joined Sen. Ted Cruz’s fundraising team.

The 41st president’s youngest son, Marvin, is a managing partner at a Virginia investment firm, and daughter Dorothy serves on the board of the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy.
