The late President George H.W. Bush is being honored with his own forever stamp.

The 41st President of the United States died last last year at the age of 94.

The stamp includes a portrait of Bush painted by award winning artist Michael J. Deas.

It is based on a 1997 photograph by Timothy Greenfield-Sanders.

The first day of issue ceremony takes place on his birthday, June 12, at the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum in College Station, Texas.
