I turned 18 on nov 4 1980 and was thrilled by the fact it was election day and I helped get rid of Carter. On my 17th bday, the ragheads seized the hostages in Iran. One of the 2 people I idolize, died today.

We'd been watching the news and knew he was ill and would soon die. I'd gone out with my two older sons and we were standing in front of a church when I got a text message from my wife: "Reagan passed," she wrote. The church bells were ringing.

I went past our sheriff's house and told him - he hadn't heard yet - and asked if I could go to the sheriff's office and lower the flag. He said I could. I was sad to do it, but it was an honor.

Reagan inspired a generation of conservatives, and I'm so happy to be among them. I grew up in the 1980s, and Ronald Reagan defined this country for me, and that's why I love this country so much.

God bless him.

I'm glad that now, released from the bondage of Alzheimers, he knows how much he meant to so many of us.

I have erected a memorial to Ronald Reagan, in front of my fence, for all who need a place to mourn. It would be nice to see memorials across America.

President Reagan was no doubt me and my wife's favorite President. I have been tearied eyed several times today, even right now. America needs men like President Reagan, more now than ever before in our history.

My wife and I grew up with President Reagan as the President. I loved and adored the man. He had courage, conviction and strength. THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER PRESIDENT THAT CAN EVER HOLD A CANDLE TO RONALD REAGAN. America has lost a great leader, and more importantly, a dear friend to us all.

To Nancy, and all of those who were the closest to President Reagan, God bless you all!!! We love you all!!! Our prayers are with you always. No President has had the influence on me, as Ronald Reagan did!!! President Reagan will be very sorely missed!!!!

To President Reagan, go rest high on that mountain. You deserve it. Yes we will miss you, but know this, America is better because you were President. Thank you for your service!!!

Don't allow the media to spin Reagans death as they did his life. Go to the FR Reagan Vigils post and pledge to organize or attend a vigil in your area.

"However, our task is far from over. Our friends in the other party will never forgive us for our success, and are doing everything in their power to rewrite history. Listening to the liberals, you'd think that the 1980's were the worst period since the Great Depression, filled with suffering and despair. I don't know about you, but I'm getting awfully tired of the whining voices from the White House these days. They're claiming there was a decade of greed and neglect, but you and I know better than that. We were there."

Ronald Reagan now joins George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Franklin Delano Roosevelt in the eternal resting place in the house of the Lord. God almighty in his magnificent wisdom and love blessed America with these greatest of Presidents! May all of you rest in peace and continue to watch over the American flock and saga!!!!
