Nothing gave my Gampy more joy than service to others, especially supporting and caring for those who risk making the ultimate sacrifice everyday. His leadership taught us to be kinder and gentler, to love each other. We will miss him dearly. pic.twitter.com/i2iR5U3ikc

America has lost a patriot and humble servant in George Herbert Walker Bush. While our hearts are heavy today, they are also filled with gratitude. Our thoughts are with the entire Bush family tonight – and all who were inspired by George and Barbara’s example. pic.twitter.com/g9OUPu2pjY

.@CallyGingrich and I extend our condolences and prayers to the Bush family on the passing of President George H.W. Bush. A caring and considerate man, a true patriot, youngest naval aviator and dedicated public servant, his love for and devotion to Barbara inspired all of us.
