According to this: 

Former President George H. W. Bush has passed away at age 94 a statement released by his personal office confirmed. His death follows years of health complications.

George Herbert Walker Bush was born on June 12, 1924, in Milton, Massachusetts, and served as the 41st President of the United States from 1989 to 1993.

George H. W. Bush is a political icon who is known for fighting to protect American exceptionalism.

Bush also served as the 43rd Vice President of the United States under President Ronald Reagan. He’s the father of two prominent politicians; former President George W. Bush and former Florida Governor Jeb Bush.

There is some solace knowing he will be reunited with Barbara, his wife of 73 years, who passed away this past April.

RIP, Mr. President.

Prayers for the Bush family.
