Letter to the Editor:

Thanks, first family, for service, civility

This is an open thank you to President Bush and first lady Laura Bush for their service, dedication, loyalty and love for this country and its people.

Having served and retired as a Texas state peace officer, I provided protection to Texas governors as one of my duties. Of the many I worked with, no one earned my respect more than these two people.

I have spent personal time with him alone as well as with the couple together. I have never known them to verbally attack others as they have been attacked.

I have always wondered what President Bush could have done as a peacetime president, but thank God it was he who was in office during this time of war. It absolutely frightens me not to be able to continue to have a person of his caliber as president.
