On the recordApril 26, 2018
I am humbled to honor former First Lady Barbara Bush--Barbara Bush had unparalleled style and grace. Not only was she our First Lady, but a fiercely loyal wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. As a fellow Texan, I am proud of her leadership for our country and her unparalleled commitment to childhood literacy. Her leadership while in the White House was impactful and her work for her foundation has helped countless children. I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Bush on a few occasions and am saddened to hear of her passing. While she may no longer be here with us on earth, we can be certain she is with our Heavenly Father--her memory will continue to live in the hearts and minds of the American people. ____________________
