George W. Bush: “I'm honored to be the first United States President to come to Sweden.”

Being your President was a high privilege, and the honor of a lifetime.

This is not mere nostalgia, it is the truest version of ourselves.

Today, we remember your loss, we share your sorrow and we honor the men and women that you have loved so long and so well.

History will remember him as among the finest public servants of his generation – a patriot who brought integrity, high intelligence, and seriousness of purpose to every position.
