Please tell me at what point in the funeral Ronan Tynan sang Ave Maria. I saw him sing Amazing Grace, but not Ave Maria.

Also, I am surprised to hear that Ave Maria would have been sung since I thought it was a Catholic song only, and President Reagan was Presbyterian.

Ave Maria was sung as a prelude, before the motorcade arrived at the Cathedral.

I noticed that on Amazon this weekend both WE WERE SOLDIERS and a Ronan Tynan solo album (which contains Ave Maria) have moved up quite high on the charts -- and take a few days to ship. Amazon obviously wasn't expecting a run on this music :). I have placed my order for both, as well as the book GOD AND RONALD REAGAN: A SPIRITUAL LIFE.
