George Herbert Walker Bush was a patriot, military hero, statesman, lead the American CIA, served as Vice President and President and was the father of a President and Governor.

His wife Barbara passed away 7 months ago after 73 years of marriage.

We will be forever indebted to the good judgement and nature of President Bush (41)'s leadership.

I liked him - he was always a gentleman, and I think a fairly skilled and tough guy, but most important, he truly loved America. Can't beat that....

My wife and I meet President Bush and Mrs. Bush at a small community theater near Arundel, Me. long after he retired. They both came across as very real people, Only thing of note was the two big black SUV's out front and all these serious guys around. May he and Barb R.I.P.

WW2 Vet (HERO), Congressman, Director of the CIA, Vice President, President of the USA... A committed American. He will be missed. My Favorite Quote?

"This aggression will NOT stand!" (prior to launching the coordinated coalition attack on Iraq for invading Kuwait)
