George W. Bush: “With the American spirit, we can change our country one soul, one person at a time.”

For eight years, it has been my honor to serve as your President. The first decade of this new century has been a period of consequence—a time set apart.

To you and the honored dead, our country is forever grateful.

That is the America I know.

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.
