"Mr. Bush said. "President Reagan went to Normandy and gave those great speeches. When he came back, I asked him, 'How did you ever get through those speeches without breaking up?' He said, "Here's what you do. You write it out yourself, and then you say it over and over again. And by doing that, it is still personal the way you say it, but you don't feel that you are apt to choke up.' "

Now, that's a professional actor speaking! Very good, actual advice for anyone tasked with such a job. I will remember this if I ever need to give some important eulogy or anything like that.

"Ronald Reagan was unfailingly courteous to the people around him, thoughtful to the little guy, the elevator operator, the butler at the White House," Mr. Bush told Time magazine.

God bless you, President Reagan. Rest in His eternal peace.
