Katy, Texas: Rev. Robert A. Crutchfield founder of FaithInspires.Org released the following statement on the death of Former First Lady Barbara Bush.
“Nancy Reagan has been remembered for her talent, grace and dignity. Barbara Bush on the other hand will be remembered by most of us in a far different way. Barbara Bush is one of only two women in American History to be both the wife of a president, and the mother of a president. You have to go all the way back to the father and son Adams duo for the last time that happened. But that is not what we will remember about Barbara Bush either !
Barbara Bush will be remembered as everyone’s grandmother. The contrast between her and Nancy Reagan was striking. Bush came off as much more approachable. She was the everyone’s first lady. Someone most Americans could both admire and identify with. We will long remember her advocacy for reading, and education. She will go down in our memories as a champion of the family.
Her passing certainly saddens me, and many, many of you. My prayers and condolences go out to the Bush Family, and everyone who knew or admired this great lady. May God’s comfort and strength be with the Bush Family, and you all as you travel through your grief.”
