He was a good man and a great Houstonian. I always preferred the Barbara Bush to the GHWB pizza. Buy a slice for me.
RIP I miss the old days when it seemed like nobody famous was dying. Now, everyone is dropping like flies. I’m kind of numb to it to be honest. He lived a full life. If only we all had such a life. It’s staggering how many are in his family. It wouldn’t shock me at all if we see many more Bush politicians well into the future and as presidents.
Played college ball at Yale. Met Babe Ruth Legit war hero Became millionaire in oil Ran CIA President of USA Raised future president He had an impossibly full life. Things that would have been the highlight of most lives were just a chapter in his.
Rest In Peace. Another of that generation has left us and there aren't a whole lot of them left. President Bush had a full and colorful life, and like my own father, was lucky enough to be pulled from the water of the Pacific after being shot down in combat. Not everyone was. The President lost the kind of close friends you make when thrown together during war, as did Dad. Those stories, best told by those who experienced them, are disappearing. They should be remembered.
