According to Business Insider, Former President George H.W. Bush exchanged letters with a Filipino boy for 10 years, keeping his identity a secret by using a pseudonym while dropping cryptic hints about his life as the country's 41st president.
Bush, who died in November, started communicating with Timothy through Compassion International, a nonprofit organization that allows church members to sponsor children in poor areas.
Through the organization, Bush paid for some of Timothy's meals, education, and extracurricular activities.
