You Need To See This Breathtakingly Powerful Image From Barbara’s Funeral

I’m gonna be honest, I still can’t see anything about Barbara Bush without feeling a little choked up.

I mean, did you see this video of her and George’s love letters? Or the cartoon Jenna posted?

Called me a sap, but I bawled like a baby at both.

She was just so LOVELY.

Anyway, I wanted to share this picture with you, because I thought it was really moving.

U.S. Secret Service agents have continued to watch over “Tranquility” — the Service’s code name for late First Lady Barbara Bush — since her death.

“Tranquility.”

I love that.

In an op-ed, former Secret Service agent Jonathan Wackrow says that Mrs. Bush’s code name, “Tranquility,” “exemplified her demeanor and its calming, humanizing and gentle effect on those around her.” https://t.co/k5csNYfPKB

What an amazing way to be remembered. There’s no doubt everyone around her thought she was absolutely wonderful
