Bush’s funeral service Saturday at St. Martin’s Episcopal Church in Houston drew nearly 1,500 guests. They came from across the country to honor the former first lady, a woman who was known for her sense of humor and who represented the best the World War II generation had to offer.

“Barbara Bush was the first lady of ‘the greatest generation,’” presidential historian and family friend Jon Meacham said in a eulogy at the service, according to ABC News. “She was candid and comforting,” he added, while describing Bush as a “point of light” who “kept everything and everyone together.”
