Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) told reporters outside the school, “This process has been an example of evil and love and good, this community and country have come together″ and are “holding this family up in prayer.”
Portman was reported to have met with the North Korean delegation to the United Nations in December to seek the release of Otto Warmbier in a secret meeting in New York.
The funeral service was open to the public but the Warmbier family requested for the press not to film inside the school or at his burial site.
