First Lady Michelle Obama and Hillary Clinton are scheduled to attend Nancy Reagan’s private funeral Friday at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley.
President Obama, however, won’t attend and will instead be at the South by Southwest tech conference in Austin, Texas, according to several media outlets.

Reagan, 94, died Sunday of congestive heart failure at her home in Bel-Air.
