RIP Mr. President. Didn't think it'd be too long after Barbara had passed.
Whatever your politics, he was a statesman and a gentleman, and he served his country with honor & postponed his college studies to fight tyranny.

Rest in peace President Bush. Had a lot of respect for him, always carried himself with class and compassion, a true statesman. Thank you for your decades of service and contributions to the country.

The only president who jumped out of a plane that I'm aware of. Definitely the only one to do it at 90. Forget the politics, he was a cool dude who got the most out of the life he had and kept his family first.
RIP

They lived through the depression as well as WWII. That's a pretty hardened generation.
Look Bush senior wasn’t exactly my favorite guy... he was a CIA spook and virtually the king of globalists.... He almost assuredly was connected to the JFK assaination in some weird way, as well as Iran contra, and several dozen other high profile immoral black op type things this country has done within the last half century. He was nt the founder of the washington swamp culture, but he dug more than his share of trenches for it. He did some good too though, and whatever is in the past is in the past... RIP Mr Bush.
Never did like the man so all I'll say is R.I.P.
RIP Sr.

RIP George. One of the few truly well-intentioned liberals I've seen in politics.

He certainly wasn't a conservative that's for sure. What I remember most? "Read my lips ,no new taxes"

RiP President Bush.
Yeah, as a supporter of Reps, HW turned out, years later I learned, to be a tremendous let-down. For his loss I mourn his family. RIP President Bush. Thank you for the well meaning years prior to government service.
What an amazing love story he and Barbara shared. I think he was a decent, honest man who loved his country, his God, and his family. Very few (if any) of those men from that generation are left. Rest well, GHWB.
Wasn’t the greatest President but was a hero for flying planes I war at 18 years old R.I.P. Mr Bush

He was my first vote too, at 18. RIP. That was a fun day. I worked our precinct, got a free pass out of school, extra credit in my Government class and threw a football with Jack Trudeau, who played for the Colts at the time.
