Man Kneels at Beau Biden’s Grave While Dad Joe Biden Is Sworn In as President

A lone person in a blue uniform kneeled at the grave of Joe Biden’s son ‘Beau’ at St. Joseph on the Brandywine Church in Greenville, Delaware.

The person kept their head bowed before and after the speech and clasped their hands. The person said nothing. No one else was in the cemetery on the cold, windy afternoon except for a few workers doing outside maintenance.

The identity of the person was not known. A News Journal reporter did not approach out of respect. The person remained at the grave after Biden finished speaking.

Beau Biden, the former Delaware attorney general and a member of the Delaware National Guard died of cancer in 2015 at age 46.
