I pray that those of you who are young will remember that this president was a “good” man in every sense of the word. May God bless him in a mighty way.

I will remember, WVNAN, for as long as I draw breath, and eternally if God gives me the ability to remember forever. These next few photo reminders of a GREAT President are in response to your moving post.

Wearing a heavy Secret Service bulletproof vest under his windbreaker, President Bush takes the mound in historic Yankee Stadium during the World Series, October 2001, about a month after the terror attacks. He throws an absolutely perfect strike -- both in baseball terms, and in the sense of symbolizing American resolve and defiance in the face of radical Islamofacism.

A major security breach occurred during a presidential visit to Chile. Chilean police and security attempted to block the President's Secret Service detail from accompanying him inside a building where he was to meet with Chilean government officials. This is a photo of one showdown between one of our agents and the Chileans.

This could have easily escalated into an severely ugly incident, but...

President Bush reaches into the scrum and rescues his own lead agent.

The President then calmly readjusted his shirt cuffs and escorted our First Lady into the hall.

There are so man “favorite pictures” of President Bush, but I think this picture is so very special because of everything it says without saying a word. To know the background information on that picture is to know the courage and character of the man.
