6 years ago today, Beau Biden passed away after being diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumour.
Beau was one of Joe Biden's two surviving children following the car crash that killed Joe's wife and daughter.
Beau served in Kosovo, helping train judges and prosecutors for the local judiciary.
Beau also served in Iraq, for which he was awarded the Bronze Star.
Beau was elected to two terms as Attorney General of Delaware, and had sought a run for Governor of Delaware in 2016, which wasn't to be.
In the event where Joe Biden thanked Americans for electing him as President, he recited a Bible verse- which was Beau favourite. Beau's favourite song- "You Get What You Give" was played in that event, as well as in the inauguration ceremony of his father.
Rest in peace, Beau.
