She was dignified and beautiful all the way through.

Nancy Reagan gave all of us a great gift. She allowed us to see what pure love looks like.

It also struck me that she didn't have to allow us to intrude on the private ceremony. She had already given us so much, but she let us be part of the final resting place as well.

We should treasure that always.

God Bless Nancy with peace and comfort.

Well done Mrs. Reagan, very well done.

Nancy is a lady right down to the tips of her fingers.

Yesterday would have been a tough day for a young woman, suffering from grief and going on for over 16 hours. I know Nancy was exhausted but she stuck to it. What a wonderful woman. A wonderful wife.

I watched almost the entire cermony. It was extremely touching.

And, btw, Fox News did a wonderful jon of covering it. No commercials, virtually no talk, excellent camera work.

I was glued to the TV yesterday, my only regrets being that I could not be present, and that my PVR does not incorporate a DVD burner. On the otherhand, watching it all again as I offload it to disc in real time will be no burden. I cannot remember a more magnificent funeral since Kennedy's; no one can doubt Regan was revered by The Nation. I have to say also my respect and admiration for Mrs. Reagan is unbounded.

And throughout the reverent, somber, sadly majestic ceremonies, I could not help but be reminded of the contrast with Senator Wellstone's obsequies. Despite the grief of the moment, I am comforted by the thought The Nation is very different from what The Activist Left believes it to be. Forgive me please for injecting partisanship, but I believe even more firmly now that November will bring its own "Shock and Awe" to those who strive to embarass and diminish America.

as Reagan winged his way home to his final resting place, the pilot dipped the plane's wings in a graceful gesture of respect just after 4 p.m. as they passed over the President's Tampico, Ill., birthplace.

Nice.
