George W. Bush: “These are historic times, and your service makes me incredibly proud.”

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

We are heartbroken by the loss of life and the agony so many are feeling.

I applaud your Governor's response to that tragedy.

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.
