Obamas visit Joe Biden to offer sympathy for death of son Beau.

President Obama visited Vice President Biden on Sunday to offer condolences for the death of his 46-year-old son, Beau.

The President was accompanied by his wife, Michelle, on the somber visit to the U.S. Naval Observatory, the official residence of the vice president.

The Obamas had been scheduled to host a reception at the White House, but it was canceled in light of Beau Biden’s death of brain cancer.

Politicians from both sides of the aisle expressed their sympathies for the veteran of the Iraq War who served eight years as Delaware’s attorney general.

Secretary of State Kerry called him “a son any father might hope to raise.”

“We pray for the strength of his wonderful family,” Bill Clinton tweeted.

House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and potential Republican presidential nominees Jeb Bush, Scott Walker, Rick Santorum and Mike Huckabee also offered words of comfort.
