VP Biden expected in RI for funeral wake

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - Vice President Joe Biden is visiting Providence to attend the wake for Connecticut Sen. Chris Dodd's sister.

Colleen Flanagan, a spokeswoman for the Connecticut Democratic Party, says Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi are due in Rhode Island on Thursday evening for a wake at a Providence funeral home.

Dodd's sister, Marta Dodd Buonanno, died Monday of cancer. She was 68.
