With my nick, I didn't think I'd be welcome:) I did want to make the point that no one from the Bush family attended Maureen's funeral. I'm sure Nancy noticed.

Thanks for the welcome.

From where I sit, your point is....redundant, for lack of better word. What possible comparison is there for attendance at the funeral of a two-term President of the United States and for his daughter?

The straw you are grasping at, IMO, is awfully thin....

First of all Maureen Reagan was the daughter of Jane Wyman and Pres Reagan. Nancy Reagan was her stepmother.

The White House sent a representative to attend the funeral as they often do for non-state funerals. Maureen Reagan was a private citizen!

"Did any of the Bush family attend Maureen Reagan's funeral?"

"I did want to make the point that no one from the Bush family attended Maureen's funeral."


If you already knew the answer to your question, why bother asking it?

I figured Maureen's funeral was more of a personal, private thing...she wasn't a public figure to the extent that President Reagan was, I don't think. I would suspect that Maureen's husband and her half-brother and sister, Ron and Patty, couldn't have cared one way or the other if a member of the Bush family was there.
