Rush Limbaugh was diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer in 2020.

That same year, Melania Trump presented the conservative legend with a Presidential Medal of Freedom during President Trump’s State of the Union address.

Here’s a flashback to that moment:

RIP Rush

Mediaite via Yahoo News noted:

Trump awarded Limbaugh the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2020, shortly after the radio host announced his cancer diagnosis.

After leaving office in 2021, Trump’s first television appearance came on the day of Limbaugh’s death, when he called into Fox News’ Outnumbered to praise the conservative juggernaut as “irreplaceable.”

RIP Rush Limbaugh.

He is still missed by many patriots, who remember listening to his radio show.

Here are some more tributes, in honor of his passing:

Rush lives on in all of our hearts. Thank you, Rush, for being our steady source of wisdom and laughter for so many years.

Rush was like a friend I could relate to. I listened to him every weekday at noon on the east coast. He is missed.
