Ditto.

He was a true patriot who put service and his country first. :thumbup:

I had the privilege of meeting him a long time ago. He was a good man who put country before politics. A true gentleman. We need more of his kind in our messed up world.

May his soul through the Mercy of God, rest in peace.

Bucco 12-01-2018 08:21 AM
In addition to being a good and honest man, he was an American hero.

A decorated veteran, a director of the FBI, along with serving in congress and as VP and President.

All done with integrity, class and honesty.

One of our country's great Americans passes. Our loss is heavens gain.

He was probably the best representative of the Greatest Generation. Unfortunately his "read my lips, no new taxes" sealed his fate as president. A true American hero.

Ecuadog 12-01-2018 10:01 AM
Rest in peace.

The American with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Clean Air Act amendments (both in 1990) symbolizes his care for people and the environment.

Rest in peace George H.W. Bush.

Our Nations flags should be flown @ half mast for the next 30 days.....

Our last war veteran as President.

Salute.

Bucco 12-02-2018 01:18 PM
In 1979, then candidate Bush was on Face the Nation, and responded to questions asking if he were "too nice to be President"

His reply is masterful and honest. Short reply......great message.

Wonderful photo of ex-President George H. W. Bush on the front of our Daily Sun this morning. Thank you to the decision maker at the paper!

Bucco 12-03-2018 05:48 PM
He is back in Washington

America is never wholly herself unless she is engaged in high moral principle. We as a people have such a purpose today. It is to make kinder the face of the nation and gentler the face of the world.

George H. W. Bush
