<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Former President George W. Bush on Tuesday marked the passing of Dick Cheney, saying in a statement that the former vice president was “among the finest public servants of his generation.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cheney served under Bush for eight years, from 2001 to 2009, as vice president of the United States. Bush described his Oval Office partner as “a calm and steady presence in the White House amid great national challenges.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Among the major tests of Bush’s tenure, arguably the most challenging was the 9/11 terror attack on the Twin Towers in New York City and launching the War on Terror in its aftermath.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I counted on him for his honest, forthright counsel, and he never failed to give his best. He held to his convictions and prioritized the freedom and security of the American people. For those two terms in office and throughout his remarkable career, Dick Cheney’s service always reflected credit on the country he loved,” said Bush.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Before serving as Bush’s vice president, Cheney served in the administration of Bush’s father, George H.W. Bush, as Secretary of Defense.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bush also spoke of his closeness to Cheney’s family, adding that &#8220;Laura and I have shared our deepest sympathies with Vice President Cheney’s wife Lynne and their daughters and granddaughters of whom he was so deeply proud.”</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“For decades, Dick Cheney served our nation, including as White House Chief of Staff, Wyoming’s Congressman, Secretary of Defense, and Vice President of the United States,” the Cheney family said in a statement. “Dick Cheney was a great and good man who taught his children and grandchildren to love our country, and to live lives of courage, honor, love, kindness, and fly fishing. We are grateful beyond measure for all Dick Cheney did for our country. And we are blessed beyond measure to have loved and been loved by this noble giant of a man.”</span></p>
