Was Lady Thatcher at President Reagan’s funeral? I thought she addressed his funeral service by video....but I could be wrong - my memory isn’t what it used to be!

She was there and the sun was setting as she said goodbye.

Maybe it's my memory that is faulty, and maybe it was Nancy Reagan who I'm thinking of. I believe Lady Thatcher was there though.

Lady Thatcher did attend President Reagan’s funeral, but her eulogy was delivered as a recorded message as, by that time, she was no longer confident speaking in public, after a series of small strokes. She preferred to be able to record what she had to say in short sessions, rather than deliver a long speech.
