George W. Bush: “America has always had a special mission to defend justice and advance freedom around the world.”

We are grateful to the first responders and volunteers who are working to find the missing and comfort the grieving at Camp Mystic and along the Guadalupe.

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.

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

Those who have lost their precious children are facing a grief no parents should ever know.
