Great pics and welcome to FR. I am sitting at home watching them while listening to Bolero and well... I am pretty tore up (with emotion only) now. Named my youngest son after Reagan, Ben Reagan just turned 3 the other day. I showed Ben Reagan the president for the first time the other day after he died, he looked at him for a few minutes and said to me "He was a cowboy right dad?" . I just smiled and said "yeah, he was a cowboy".

A woman called in to Joe Scarborough's program last night. She said when she told her little boy President Reagan died he asked, "Is he in heaven now mommie?". She then told him about the boots in the stirups. He said "Angels don't wear boots do they?".

I thought I was going to make it through today without tearing up,...then I read your post. That is the sweetest thing he could say.
prisoner of War is on TCM with Ronald Reagan. Very poignant movie.
