As I sit watching the funeral of our 41st President Bush I am awestruck by all those who represent us as Americans and how we can come together as a nation in the most poignant moments in our country.

We as Americans crave this kind of hope right now. That the possibility for a country we can once again be proud of lives on in such an honest example as President Bush represented.

I heard a women say only yesterday that we as a nation need more hope.

As one great leader leaves us the last thing I feel he leaves us with is “hope.”
