Washington CNN —Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is accompanying the body of late Sen. Dianne Feinstein on a plane from president’s military fleet to San Francisco, an aide told CNN. Feinstein, who shared a long friendship with Pelosi, the former House Speaker, died Thursday night following months of declining health. “Personally, it was a great honor to serve alongside Dianne for decades – from the hilly streets of San Francisco to the hallowed halls of Congress,” Pelosi said in a statement following Feinstein’s passing. Feinstein and Pelosi both have history-making legacies. Pelosi made history as the first and so far only woman to be speaker of the US House of Representatives.
