Rest in peace, President Ford.

He was a class act.

Does anyone remember how the media pointed out his falling down steps, tripping, etc? They made him look like a dufus....sorta reminds me of how some of the media and late night show comedians make our good President George W. look like he has speech impediments.....but not really so.

May former President Ford, a good man, rest in peace!

Gerald Ford played football. He was born Leslie King, but his mother married another man and he became Gerald Ford.

Lord, please raise up this honorable man to your everlasting embrace. We all owe him a debt of thanks. We ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.

Back when men were men and not the sissified communist punks we have now (FReepers and solid Conservatives aside).

RIP and may the family find peace. My grandfather died last week and I can relate to the feeling of loss, especially around a holiday.

God bless this gentle soul. My memories of him as President are few though I remember him more as a Michigander. His museum in Grand Rapids is always a favorite place of mine to visit.

Rest in peace, Gerald. You were an honorable man.

Rest in Peace, Gerr. Too bad you won't be able to see Michigan stomp USC in the Rose Bowl.

Who's to say he won't? :O)
