Lindsey Graham returns home one last time for his funeral in South CarolinaCOLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Sen. Lindsey Graham returned for the last time Wednesday to South Carolina, where powerful friends remembered him as someone who never stopped working for the state he loved. Graham seemed to know every small-town mayor and police chief and the location of every Chick-fil-A across South Carolina. Wednesday’s funeral was at First Baptist, the giant downtown church where his predecessor Republican Sen. Strom Thurmond was honored 23 years ago. Graham’s body was first brought to the South Carolina Statehouse, where he started his political career in 1993. Graham’s death has created opportunities for change in South Carolina.
