Barbara Bush is 'alert', talking

I know her family is heartbroken, but the fact that she was in her right mind right up to the end was a blessing, and they probably know that. Seeing a loved one decline physically hurts. Seeing one decline mentally is torture.

Since it looks like there's no way to opt out of dying in this life, I think I'd like to go out like Mrs. Bush.

RIP to a fiercely loyal wife, mother and family matriarch. She was much loved by her family, admired by many and lived a full life. My heart goes out to her husband particularly.

Mrs. Bush promoted family literacy as First Lady, which was a wonderful platform that Laura Bush continued in a similar way.

I know. I can not begin to imagine how he must be lost right now. On one of the news coverage segments on her passing, there was a part where George said "She still likes to hold my hand". Very touching.

I had know idea she would die so soon. Obviously, her family did. I know she was 92 and in failing health but it doesn't make it any easier for her family. She was such a wonderful and graceful lady. I don't think George will be around much longer either. He's been in failing health as well and just lost the love of his life

But whatever her faults, she puts Melania to shame, I think, as to what a First Lady should be.

Not a fan of the Bush family but RIP to Barbara and condolences to the family and friends.

She passed on with dignity. That is hard to do. I commend her for her dedication to her husband and family.

Unfortunately for you, one must have class to recognize class.

I didn’t know she passed away.

Condolences to her family, may she Rest In Peace.

There is no need to go there in this thread.
