Thanks for your sharing your thoughts and experience. Reagan touched so many of us, in so many ways. To use a cliche, he was a uniter rather than a divider, for that critical mass that makes America so special and unique.

Thank you for your eloquent and moving description of your experience.
I visited the Reagan Library in 1996 and recall the beautiful statue of the bronze eagle.
IMHO the architecture and setting or the Reagan Library makes it the most beautiful of all the presidential libraries.
I especially liked your analogy of the Library being a symbol of his 'shining city on a hill'.
We all knew he couldn't live forever, and his death is a release from that dreadful illness...but it is so sad to know that he is no longer with us.
Many times I have wished he had been able to speak to us; especially after 9-11-01. Hearing all his moving speeches this week; seeing him stride confidently; tell a joke and wave....has given him back to America....for a loving last goodbye.
God Speed Ronaldus Maximus....to that shining city!

A touching personal account of a moment in time:
He led us in defeating the Evil Empire
Relighting the economic pilot light
Remembering that we are a great nation--
And we still have an appointment with destiny.
