George W. Bush: “We are grateful for their example of service.”

We learned that bravery is more common than we imagined, emerging with sudden splendor in the face of death.

The creativity, ingenuity, and resourcefulness of the American people is our country's greatest strength.

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.

Congratulations on becoming our President.
