To: Mo1
Yes she does .. I don't know how she says so strongI'm thinking it is the peace of knowing that he has gone to his reward, after all the hardship of his last years.
To: lawgirl
Isn't this where Reagan took the oath in 81?
To: BlueAngel; All
Has anyone seen Michael Reagan?I wondered, too.
His show should be airing live now, right? Is he on? (Stupid question, perhaps. But, it's tape delayed here in Iowa, and I haven't heard it lately. I wouldn't be surprised if he's off this week.)
