Stars Remember President Bush

Audio By Carbonatix

President George H.W. Bush passed away this weekend at age 94, and several country artists expressed their sadness at his passing.

“I had the great privilege of traveling across this great nation with President Bush 41,” Lee Greenwood shared. “Our time as friends took us from the White House to Camp David - which included Air Force One - to inaugurating the Points of Light Foundation at Disney World, to the opening of my theater in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, to Houston, Kennebunkport and every place where proud Americans reside. He was the best man, most generous patriot, and greatest friend a man could ask for."

Randy Travis also remembered the president, sharing, “Yesterday, the country lost a great American hero. The world lost a wonderful human being whose greatest concern was for others, and for that which is right." He added, "I will never take for granted the kindness he and Barbara, and the entire Bush family have shown me over the years. President Bush served our country well. He laughed often and lived well. He collected accomplishments, not accolades. His example as a faithful Christian father, friend, and family man never wavered.”
