President George H.W. Bush's last words to his son

5years ago

The 41st U.S. president who died late Friday told his son George W. Bush he loved him too, replying to the son's words " you have been a wonderful dad."

A goodbye call on Friday night was the last conversation shared by the father and the son, before he died at his Houston home surrounded by friends and family members.

A special friend, James A. Baker III shared also the last moment with the former president: "Where are we going, Bake?", Bush reportedly asked him, "We're going to heaven" Baker replied. "That's where I want to go." Barely 13 hours later he passed away.

Baker said that "It was as gentle a passing as I think you could ever expect anyone tohave. And he was ready."
