Well at least it's not Fat Elvis or The Last Years of Marlon Brando.

I didn't know she has COPD - was she a smoker?

COPD doesn't necessarily come from smoking; it's an inflammation of the lung that restricts air flow. It can come from bronchitis and/or pneumonia infections, and emphysema as well. Any air irritant, like smog or pollution (including first- or second-hand smoke) can contribute to it.

It is being reported that Barbara Bush has passed. RIP.

Damn. That happened fast. RIP Barbara. :(

And I imagine George won't be far behind her...those two were awfully close, and I thought he was in much poorer health than her, damn it all. :(

That has been the prevailing thought tonight.  :-\

Very sad news. I have the greatest respect and admiration for the Bushes. Very Class Acts both of them.  :'(

Forget politics.  I've seen some horrible "Good riddance" and worse moments on my facebook. 

A good woman, a good person.  Her husband is a good man too, and I'd imagine he's not far behind. I wouldn't be either if I lost my wife. 

I mourn her, she was an example of what we need as a first lady.
