passed away tonight after deciding to stop medical care. I met her a couple of times. Really lovely lady.
She and Abigail Adams the only ones to be First Lady as well as mother of a president.
Godspeed to a remarkable woman.

Heavens gates gained an entry today, classy lady.... RIP
She loved English Springer Spaniels, the highest calling anyone can have.
She always epitomized the word "spunk" imo, Rest in Peace First Lady Bush.
Great lady and military wife.
One has to wonder how much longer Sr. will go. It seems like you always read when there is a couple that has been married forever, and when one of the spouses die, the other dies soon after.
This is true. I will never forget the time a work colleague was called home because his mother died. So he leaves work for 4-5-6 days to go deal with that. While he was driving back to our city, he gets a call that his father died. So it definitely happens.
41 has looked bad for a long time, so nothing would surprise me. Wishing that family all of the best during this difficult time.
One of my all time favorite quotes. It just happened to come from her. RIP.
Barbara Bush — 'Clinton lied. A man might forget where he parks or where he lives, but he never forgets oral sex, no matter how bad it is.'

Always seemed like a class act; also had a great sense of humor and wit. My in-laws are friends with Laura and W, got a photo with Barbara, George, Laura and W when my son was like 3. Wife said to W my husband would love to meet you but you sent him on a vacation overseas without us.
Spent her last day on her lawn drinking bourbon, surrounded by her family. Would be nice to go out like that.

My paternal grandparents were married for 6 decades, and this happened with my Pop a few months after my grandmother passed.
Great woman. My wife and I were watching the montage of photos last night on TV as the pundits discussed her death and life, and I finally brought up to her, feeling like an arse, the thing puzzling me and driving me crazy: She aged like 40 years in 10 years. Meaning she looked 75 from ages 40 something to 80 something. Instead of my wife bashing my head apart like I expected, she immediately said she noticed same thing and was wondering.
Not even 5 minutes later the commentator recounted the story of their oldest daughter, dying of leukemia just short of 4. They gave her three weeks and they did everything and she lasted 7 months. Apparently, at the end of this time, her hair had begun to turn white. ...and likely aged her 20 years. I never knew the story. Makes me appreciate all that came after for her, despite the horrific event.
