“I extend my thoughts and prayers to Barbara Bush and the entire Bush family on behalf of the New Orleans Saints and New Orleans Pelicans. Mrs. Bush is a special woman who has filled several important roles; as a First Lady with class, grace and strength with a strong commitment towards the causes of literacy and education, as a devoted wife to President Bush and as the proud matriarch of the Bush family.”
