Editing William McKinley (section)

===Funeral and resting place===
According to Gould, "The nation experienced a wave of genuine grief at the news of McKinley's passing."{{sfn|Gould|p=252}} The stock market, faced with sudden uncertainty, suffered a steep decline that went nearly unnoticed in the mourning. The nation focused its attention on the casket that first lay in the [[East Room]] of the Executive Mansion and then [[Lying in state#United States|lay in state]] in the Capitol before being transported to Canton by train.{{sfn|Morgan|pp=402–03}} Approximately 100,000 people passed by the open casket in the [[Capitol Rotunda]], many having waited hours in the rain. In Canton, an equal number did the same at the Stark County Courthouse on September 18. The following day, a funeral service was held at the First Methodist Church. The casket was next sealed and taken to the McKinley house, where relatives paid their final respects.{{sfn|McElroy|p=167}} It was then transported to the receiving vault at [[West Lawn Cemetery]] in Canton to await the construction of the memorial to McKinley already being planned.{{sfn|Morgan|p=403}}

There was a widespread expectation that Ida McKinley would not long survive her husband; one family friend stated, as William McKinley lay dying, that they should be prepared for a double funeral.{{sfn|Miller|p=348}} However, this did not occur, and the former first lady accompanied her husband on the funeral train. Leech noted "the circuitous journey was a cruel ordeal for the woman who huddled in a compartment of the funeral train, praying that the Lord would take her with her Dearest Love."{{sfn|Leech|p=602}} She was thought too weak to attend the services in Washington or Canton, although she listened at the door to the service for her husband in her house on North Market Street. She remained in Canton for the remainder of her life, setting up a shrine in her house and often visiting the receiving vault, until her death at age 59 on May 26, 1907.{{sfn|Miller|p=348}} She died only months before the completion of [[McKinley National Memorial|the large marble monument]] to her husband in Canton, which was dedicated by President Roosevelt on September 30, 1907. William and Ida McKinley are interred there with their daughters atop a hillside overlooking the city of Canton.{{sfnm|McElroy||1pp=189–93|Morgan||2p=406}}
