Secret Service shares photo of the time George H.W. Bush shaved his head for agent’s son with leukemia

The U.S. Secret Service shared a moving photo of George H.W. Bush on Twitter a day before the late president is honored with a state funeral.

In the photo, the former president, whose head was shaved bald, could be seen sitting with a little boy, whose head was also shaved.

According to the agency’s post, Bush shaved his head too “in classic 41 manner” when he learned that the 2-year-old child of an agent was diagnosed with leukemia and that the rest of his security detail would be shaving their heads in support of the child.

The agency shared the story on Tuesday, writing in the tweet: "Everyone's #TuesdayThoughts are on President Bush."

4. I did not care for him as President

Too many issues to list. But, I also never thought he was mean, or stupid, or evil. But like many persons I have disagreement with, a fundamentally good person who has some wrong ideas.
