It has been two years since former President George H.W. Bush passed away. He was 94 years old. His son, former President George W. Bush shared a sweet throwback photo and note to remember his father.
The photo is dated the summer of 1991 and shows the two men fishing. A handwritten note reads, “George — My idea of Heaven! Devotedly, Dad.” George captioned the photo, “41 went to heaven two years ago today. Save a striper for me, Dad.”

Often, George and his daughter Jenna Bush Hager have shared memories of their father and grandfather. Earlier this month, Jenna shared a touching story. She said that her grandfather started the tradition of an outgoing president leaving a note for the incoming president.

Bill Clinton was the president after George H.W. Bush. Part of the letter read, “Dear Bill, When I walked into this office just now I felt the same sense of wonder and respect that I felt four years ago. I know you will feel that, too. [I] wish you great happiness here. I never felt the loneliness some Presidents have described.”
Sending our condolences again to the Bush family. It is always hard when the anniversary of someone’s passing comes around.
