Congresswoman Fudge Releases Statement on the

Passing of President George H.W. Bush

 

WASHINGTON – Congresswoman Marcia L. Fudge released the following statement on the passing of President George H.W. Bush: 

 

“Today, the country mourns the loss of President George H.W. Bush.  His vision, loyalty and love for this country was evident in his life's work as a public servant.  The epitome of patriotism, courage and sacrifice, President Bush believed in the American Dream and our strength as a unified nation free of racism, violence and xenophobia.  A true gentleman of integrity, his call for a 'kinder, gentler nation’ is a message that crossed party lines and showed the moral spirit of a wise and humble leader.  

 

“My prayers remain with the entire Bush family as we remember and celebrate the life of a World War II veteran, Texas Congressman, CIA Director, Vice President and the 41st President of the United States.”
