"She knew they were very close to the Bush family and wanted them to be able to pay their respects," spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham said.

In a statement following the service, Trump praised Bush as "a woman of indisputable character and grace."

"It was my honor to travel to Houston to give my respects to Barbara Bush and the remarkable life she led as a mother, wife, and fearless First Lady," she said.

That was a VERY decent thing for her to do.  She is such a monumental upgrade over the last FLOTUS

Agreed.  Mrs. Trump is a classy lady.  God knows we needed a classy First Lady after 8 years of the last one.
