Bush | 2018-12-01 | 2018 | 2018-12 | Republican | House | ID | Jim Risch | R000584 | www.risch.senate.gov | legacy | Boise, ID U.S. Senator Jim Risch (R-ID) made the following statement: "The world has lost a great and decent man. From his service as a Naval pilot during WWII to his successful tenure as President of the United States, George H.W. Bush was a faithful servant of the people for so much of his life. As devoted as George was to our country, his true passion was his family. He will always be remembered for the pride he had in his children and grandchildren and the love he shared with his wife, Barbara. "During my time serving as Idaho Chairman of his presidential campaign, Vicki and I were honored to host George and Barbara at our home, sharing memories that will last a lifetime. Today he and Barbara are reunited as one; Vicki and I pray that will bring his family a measure of comfort and peace during the difficult days ahead. We will miss George and Barbara greatly." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
