George W. Bush: “Every day, you show bravery under incredibly difficult circumstances.”

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

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.

You will have an Almighty God to comfort you.

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.
