Bill Clinton to speak at Ed Koch's funeral in NYC
NEW YORK – Ed Koch is being remembered as the quintessential New Yorker – an admired but tough, colorful former mayor who will be honored at his funeral by former President Bill Clinton.
At the service Monday morning at Manhattan's Temple Emanu-El, mourners will also hear about Koch's other fierce loyalty: Israel. The Israeli consul general is set to speak, along with New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
And New York Police Department helicopters are expected to fly over the synagogue in honor of Koch.
