Barbara Bush passed on 17 April 2018. I worked for the Bush administration form 1989 - 1992 and have nothing but the highest respect for Mrs. Bush. She was the epitome of grace and politeness. I nor anyone that I know had ever heard her utter a harsh word and was truly a grandmother figure for the administration. Mrs. Bush worked quietly in the shadows, softly spoken and never desiring anything but betterment for others. Her work to enhance the literacy of all was largely understated but became her legacy, helping all who sought to better themselves through education. Wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother, Barbara Bush will be missed and I hope that her passing was as graceful as she was.
