Re: Barbara Bush

A great First Lady well loved by all....RIP Mrs. Bush

Re: Barbara Bush

She was a gracious lady there are not many memorable US first ladies but Jackie Kennedy, Barbara Bush and Michelle Obama are probably three that will be remembered. (Not so sure about Hillary Clinton - losing the unlosable election put a damper on her)

Re: Barbara Bush

That woman seemed to do a good job as first lady. I doubt it will be long before her husband turns up his toes too, he seems to be in very poor health.

Re: Barbara Bush

Well he is about 96 .

Re: Barbara Bush

He is 94 in June. He was born in 1924 the same year as my mother.

Re: Barbara Bush

I liked Barbara Bush a down to earth woman not obsessed with her appearance and wardrobe who clearly had a genuine interest in making improvements in the lives of others.

Apparently her hair turned white in 1953 when her three-year-old daughter Robin died of leukaemia and she never attempted to cover up the reminder of her loss..
