The Gipper won one for us. God rest his soul.

One of my most prized possessions is a letter he sent me back when I was a "cub reporter." It's in my photo album. I LOVE Ronald Reagan!

My late father had an opportunity to meet President Reagan when he spoke at a Waukesha fundraiser for Bob Kasten and Jim Sensenbrenner in '86 or so.

My Dad was standing in a greeting line next to a man who brought his young son. When Reagan got to their place, the child was fussing and crying and the father was embarrassed and apologized to the President for his son's behavior. According to my Dad, Reagan got that glint in his eye and said "It's nothing I won't see in my meeting with Tip on Monday." Good stuff.
