The spokesman for George H. W. Bush tweeted a moving photo Sunday evening that George H. W. Bush’s service dog laying aside the flag-draped casket holding the recently departed President. The moving photo perfectly encapsulated the fidelity and loyalty that marked the civic service of the 41st Commander in Chief, and melted the hearts of many on Twitter.

Sully was President Bush’s service dog who worked with the president after Barbara Bush died. According to @CNN’s @jamiegangel, Sully will be traveling with Bush on Air Force One tomorrow. Eventually, Sully will likely go back to helping veterans at Walter Reed. What a good dog. https://t.co/gdjYuAWISD

Sully has been George H.W. Bush’s service dog for the last couple months.
Even after his death, he was right at his side.
