George W Bush slips Michelle Obama a mint during his father's funeral mirroring the famous candy exchange at McCain's funeral
The former first lady Michelle Obama once referred to George W Bush as her 'partner in crime' while talking about their friendship and had called him 'a wonderful man'
Former President George W Bush and former First Lady Michelle Obama have often been in the news for the special friendship the duo share despite their political differences. Their strong bond was once again on display at the funeral service of the late President George HW Bush.
During the service, as the president and the former presidents were sitting on the first row of the Washington National Cathedral waiting for Bush senior's casket to arrive, Bush junior came by the row and shook hands with the former presidents and first ladies.
Although he shook hands and exchanged kind words with everyone, when he came to Michelle Obama, he slipped a candy to her, which he had earlier taken out of his pocket just for the purpose.
