Rest in peace Mrs. Reagan.

A reminder that there have been some classy fine first ladies.

A gracious, if somewhat eccentric, First Lady. And a bosom companion to the greatest president of the last century.

She and the Gip are reunited at last.

You’re being very unkind. Melania Trump has been a wonderful mother, speaks multiple languages and thoroughly understands decorum. She’d make a fine First Lady.

Nos priéres à Dieu augmentent pour Nancy et famille.
(Our Prayers to God increase for Nancy and family.)

Notre Père qui es aux cieux,
Que ton Nom soit sanctifié, que ton règne vienne,
Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour.
Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensès.
Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal.
Car c'est à Toi qu'appartiennent le règne, la puissance et la gloire,
pour les siè cles des siècles. Amen

Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bènie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

“Too bad the NYT was so horrible to her while she was first lady.”

Glad somebody spotted that. They were craven lunatics when it came to the Reagans.

I agree.

Her conduct during the campaign has been impeccable and I expect she would bring good taste, manners and decorum back to the White House as First Lady.
