George HW Bush was largely known for his work in public office –– from his time as a Texas congressman and CIA director to his years in the White House as president and Ronald Reagan's vice president. He passed away at the age of 94 on Saturday, 1 December, seven months after his wife Barbara Bush's demise.
The World War II hero and great-grandfather also was an avid skydiver, played in the first-ever College World Series and was the longest-married president in US history.
Here is his life in 10 pictures.
