Remembering George H.W. Bush http://bit.ly/2Uh1xmL

Former President George H.W. Bush was eulogized Monday at a ceremony in the U.S. Capitol as a gracious, humble leader who dedicated his life to public service.

“In consequential times, George Herbert Walker Bush demonstrated the finest qualifies of our nation and of human kind,” said House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis.

Bush, he said, was “a great leader and a good man.”

Bush, 94, died late Friday at his home in Houston after a battle with Vascular Parkinsonism.

The flag-draped coffin of the nation’s 41st president, who will lie in state in the Capitol Rotunda until Wednesday, arrived in Washington on Monday afternoon aboard the blue-and-white presidential plane that serves as Air Force One.
