RIP!
I always liked the Bush family, even as a staunch democrat and coming from a long line of Clinton (and then Obama) supporters. My folks did too. The moment where George W. Bush handed Michelle Obama a piece of candy was a very sweet moment. It shows the kind of decorum we should expect from a president, and I'll leave it at that! George H.W. Bush was before my time but everything I've heard of him sounded like a good man and president.

RIP Glenn Frey and Randy Meisner

I was 8 when George Sr. became President. I remembered when I was in middle school in 1992 when he ran against Clinton, our school did a mock election to see who we would vote for if we were old enough to vote. I voted for him.
I always heard good things about him. It looks like Jimmy Carter is now the oldest living president now. Technically he and Bush are the same age, but Bush was just 4 months older than him.
Brothers for life. RIP Glenn
I'm not sure I believe in fate, but I know that crossing paths with Glenn Lewis Frey in 1970 changed my life forever, and it eventually had an impact on the lives of millions of other people all over the planet. It will be very strange going forward in a world without him in it. But, I will be grateful, every day, that he was in my life. Rest in peace, my brother. You did what you set out to do, and then some." -Don Henley
