George W. Bush: “Today and tomorrow, students of Virginia Tech will rise to receive diplomas they have earned through years of hard work.”

On this day of prayer, Laura and I are holding up our fellow Texans who are hurting.

Laura and I are fortunate to have known Andrew Wyeth and to have had the pleasure of enjoying his work.

You will have an Almighty God to comfort you.

On behalf of the American people, Laura and I offer our sincere condolences to Betsy and the Wyeth family.
