He personified everything that was good and true and honorable about what it meant to be an American... about how great we were, and how great we could still be again. He was a servant and a statesman, not a politician or a partisan. Above all else, he was a Christian. <./i> Well said...and he went about charcterizing all the good of each of those qualities, particularly the last one.

i posted this on another thread too, don't know where it should go, not really a tribute, just a memory
i remember coming home from school the day Ronald Reagan was shot. I had written a letter to him although I can't remember what it was about. I imagine it was a school project or something. So my grandmother told me he had been shot, and my first reaction was extreme sadness and childish selfishness ----" i guess he won't get my letter". then she told me he was alive. and i was happy. that night i got to work with my crayons and construction paper and made a get well card with all my favorite super heroes on it. a few months later i got a thank you note in the mail. i still have it. i think it's really signed by Ronald Reagan. It's his signature and it's definitely signed in ink. those were the days.
