Former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush placed flowers at the steps of Saints Volodymyr & Olha Catholic Church in Chicago.
"These flowers say 'in solidarity,' or in Ukrainian, 'flowers,'" said John Oharenko. The lifelong Chicagoan is Ukrainian. His family has escaped Russia's brutal war.
"The flower shop lady who doesn't speak the best English said, 'Hey, we need some help here, there's a camera crew," Oharenko said."So that's how the situation evolved. We knew something was going on, but we didn't know it was the presidents." Oharenko had seen a huge motorcade earlier. It wasn't until Friday night he truly understood what happened.
"I'm so grateful that we're getting to business as a country are rallying behind the Ukrainian flag," he said."Just like 250 years ago we rallied behind the red, white and blue. If the blue and yellow are the rally cry to get Americans to cooperate, God bless us."
