WASHINGTON, DC – Rep. Pete Olson (TX-22) today issued the following statement regarding the death of President George H.W. Bush, America’s 41st President:
“America’s heart is heavy today with the loss of a true patriot, a great president and one of the most decent men ever, George Herbert Walker Bush. George and his wife Barbara never let the pressures of their chosen lives take away their humanity. They lived their lives purely and respectfully, serving as shining examples to us all. George is now in Heaven with Barbara and their 4 year old daughter Robin by his side. From this former Naval aviator to another former Naval aviator, President Bush, may you have fair winds and following seas, sir. Thank you for making God’s world better. We have the watch.”
