Vice President Joe Biden to attend former congressman Louis Stokes' funeral in Cleveland
CLEVELAND - Vice President Joe Biden will be in Cleveland on Tuesday to attend former congressman Louis Stokes funeral.
Stokes, the first black congressman elected in Ohio, died last week with his wife at his side after a brief battle with brain and lung cancer.
He was 90.
