I worked for President Reagan in the service, before the Air Base gig. I’ve talked with both gentlemen hundreds of times. Both of them were GREAT people, especially President Reagan. I miss him much as I miss my father.

The lady who cuts my hair is named Shirley and she loved Reagan. Her husband was head of security at the Hotel Del in 1964 and Reagan was visiting and Shirley had her own shop in the hotel. She offered to do Nancy’s hair but her services weren’t needed. She ended up making lemonade for the officials viewing some type of parade in the area and Reagan was there with Nancy. Shirley said he thanked her for the lemonade and as she was walking away he yelled “Hey Shirley!! Can I have some more of that lemonade?” She tells that story like it was just last week. I guess she met quite a few dignitaries back in the day.
