Mamie Eisenhower Buried In Abilene Chapel Ceremony
Mamie Eisenhower was laid to rest beside Dwight D. Eisenhower and her son in a small limestone chapel at the Eisenhower Library. About 40 family and friends attended, including Richard and Pat Nixon, while 1,500 townspeople gathered outside under autumn skies. The private service lasted about 20 minutes, with a Gettysburg minister reading from the 1952 inaugural prayer.
