Nancy patting her dear one -- so fondly. And it looked like she was speaking to him.

Difficult days ahead for her, prairie. I do so hope the outpouring of love and respect for her Ronnie is helping her somewhat.

It really is almost too much. I am glad the people get to see him- I wish I could be in DC tonight. I really hope Fox gives us a good number of how many people are going to be there.

In the end it is all:

"Thank you President Ronald W. Reagan."

and thank you is not enough for all he did.

Nancy has been through hell.

And then some. Alzheimer patients are usually sad and distraught. It would be exceedingly hard to watch the one you love to have to go through this. There has to be some relief on her part to see his suffering end.

Folks, this is a funeral/memorial thread for a very honored peron. Let's leave the negative names off this thread.
