FORMER Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd
FORMER prime minister Kevin Rudd has rescheduled overseas engagements to attend Daniel Morcombe's funeral on Friday.
Mr Rudd, who grew up on the Sunshine Coast, spent yesterday shuffling his flights and speaking commitments so he could pay his respects.
His spokesman said he was due to attend the Myanmar Dialogue in Bahrain, where he was to speak on Friday, but he delayed his departure. Mr Rudd's last meeting with Bruce and Denise Morcombe was in Canberra on October 30.
He has been a supporter of the Daniel Morcombe Foundation and the Day for Daniel.
"This will be a sad day for the Coast community which still feels the shock and horror of what happened to Daniel," his spokesman said. Queensland Senator Claire Moore will attend on behalf of Prime Minister Julia Gillard.
