George H.W. Bush Memorial Services Schedule
Some of you may not have seen the news story I released Friday night on the death of George H.W. Bush, our 41st president. Here's the video.

George H.W. Bush has passed away at the age of 94. He was the 41st President of the United States from 1989 to 1993. Before that, he was the Vice-President with Ronald Reagan from 1981 to 1989.
His son was George W. Bush, the 43rd President of the United States.
When he was a young man, he was a U.S. Navy pilot during World War II. After this, he studied at Yale University, then moved to Texas where he went into the oil business and became wealthy.
He became a Congressman in 1966. He rose in the ranks within the Republican party, reaching his apex when he was elected president in 1988.
During his presidency, the Berlin Wall fell and the Soviet Union dissolved. Bush signed the NAFTA. He lost the 1992 Presidential election to Bill Clinton.
In recent years, his health has become frail. His wife, Barbara, passed away in April.
The Deaf and disability community can always thank Bush for signing the ADA in law in 1990.
Rest in peace, George H.W. Bush.

Now here are some updates on Bush’ funeral and memorial service plans.
First, I want to show you a touching image of Bush’s casket at a funeral home in Houston. In front of it, there was his service dog, Sully, laying down.
Today his body was transported by motorcade to a military air base, where he will be flown to another military air base in Maryland.
He will then lie in state in the rotunda of the U.S. Capitol starting tonight until Wednesday morning. His casket will then be transported to the National Cathedral for a state funeral. President Trump is expected to attend.
Then on Wednesday night, his casket will be flown back to Houston and be placed in a church for a public viewing.
On Thursday there will be a private funeral service at the same church, then his casket will be transported to a train station, where it will be placed in a Union Pacific train.
The train will go on a 2 1/2 hour trip to the city of College Station, where Bush’s presidential library is, at Texas A&M University. There will be a ceremony there.
His body will finally be buried there at a gated family plot with his wife, Barbara, and daughter, Robin, who died at 3 years old of cancer.

Dallas Officer Amber Guyger Charged With Murder; American Airlines Abandons Woman in Wheelchair Overnight; Chiefs Release Kareem Hunt After Domestic Violence Video Surfaces
Here are three top stories briefs.
The first: on Friday, Dallas police officer Amber Guyger was charged with murder by a grand jury for shooting and killing Botham Jean, an unarmed black man, in his apartment home. This happened in September. Guyger said it was accidental, that she thought she was in her apartment, which was a floor below, and that the man was an intruder.
Guyger was initially charged with manslaughter and fired by the police department, but now with this murder charge, she is facing up to life in prison if she is convicted.
Now the second news brief: a woman in a wheelchair was abandoned overnight at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. This happened after her American Airlines flight was cancelled on Friday night. She has Parkinson’s disease. It seems like the airport staff were supposed to take her to a hotel room, but after communication difficulties, they abandoned her there. American Airlines has apologized and started an investigation.
The third news brief: NFL team Kansas City Chiefs released their star running back, Kareem Hunt, after TMZ released a video of him pushing and kicking a woman in February. Hunt told ESPN in a recent interview that he was “in the wrong” and apologized to the woman. Hunt is 23 years old and said he hopes he will have another chance in the NFL.
