US President, Donald Trump on Friday held a private White House funeral service for his younger brother, Robert.
According to Independent Uk, Bagpipes played alongside the procession as pallbearers carried Robert Trump’s casket into a hearse waiting near the North Portico of the White House. A service was held in the East Room, which has rarely been used for funeral services.
Robert, I Love You,” Trump tweeted Friday night. “Rest In Peace!”
