As the nation pays its respects to George Herbert Walker Bush, stories are circulating that the former WWII Navy pilot and 41st President briefly came back to life with a last minute request he forget to make clear enough during his lifetime.

“Sometime about his funeral I believe.”

Though, at the age of 94, Bush been declared definitively deceased, those paying their respects in person insist he briefly returned to our plane of existence.

“It was only a few seconds, but long enough for him to say something about keeping that buffoon away?”

Medical experts are at a loss to explain how this could have happened to someone who was clinically dead, but are not going so far as to rule it out completely.

“When there’s enough will, nature finds a way.”
