A memorial service for Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones (D-Ohio), who died yesterday after suffering a brain hemorrhage, is expected to be held in Cleveland the weekend after the Democratic National Convention, according to a report in the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

"Plans are still being made, but the Aug. 30 date is most likely, says Joe Hewitt, a family friend and spokesman," the Plain Dealer reports. No plans have been made yet for a separate service in Washington.

The timing of the Tubbs Jones memorial is important, as many Democratic lawmakers will likely want to attend but are committed to being in Denver next week. The same is true for many Democratic politicians in Ohio. Some Republican House members will also want to be present, so holding the service on Aug. 30 would allow members of both parties to attend their respective conventions and still head to Cleveland next weekend to pay their respects to their deceased colleague.

The Hill reports that Democratic officials are planning a tribute to Tubbs Jones during their convention next week, one that may include the involvement of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.), a friend and political ally of the Ohio lawmaker.
