PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti - Hundreds of people attended the funeral of former dictator Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier on Saturday, displaying lingering respect for a man who was widely reviled for repression and corruption during his 15 years in power.

Mourners paused to pay their respects in front of Duvalier's coffin draped with Haiti's red-and-blue flag before greeting his partner Veronique Roy, his ex-wife Michele Bennett and their two children.

Members of Haiti's elite and former officials of Duvalier's regime arrived in luxury SUVs, joining more humble citizens in ill-fitting suits, and quickly filled the chapel on the grounds of the Saint-Louis de Gonzague school in the Delmas district of Port-au-Prince.

Representatives for President Michel Martelly and Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe attended, as did former President Boniface Alexandre. Lamothe was out of the country, while Martelly, whose administration is considered to be close to Duvalier, was in Haiti but did not attend
