You will never know how much we all loved watching the "Greatest Love Story Ever Told" unfold before our very eyes. We are proud that Ronald Reagan was our President and we were just as proud to have you as our First Lady.

It is YOUR strength that has brought us through this, we are so proud of you.

To have the emotional strength and desire to make a gesture like that at a time like this...

In my mind's eye, as I watched her turn around and wave, I saw her Ronnie standing there with her, holding her hand instead of the general. Even the voices of the TV announcers sounded awestruck and moved.

Ronald Reagan still standing beside Nancy. This is how I saw it on June 9th, 2004.

Reagan Family:

At this time of sorrow, I hope you can rejoice in the feeling of gratitude and respect felt by me and my fellow countrymen for President Reagan.

God Bless you all.

May your days ahead of you, Mrs. Reagan, be of great joy.

I am so thankful for your determination to take such great care of President Ronald Reagan, your husband and the love of your life. As we all look back over all those years of your care and love for him; there are not words to express our heartfelt thanks to you.

You can count yourself as one of our truly great American. You too will go down in history with great fondness and love. We Americans Love you. May God Bless you always.

Mrs. Reagan, you with infinite grace took the mantle of infinite confidence in our nation called America, that your ever beloved Husband, Ronald Reagan, everyday personified.

God Bless You, Nancy.

UB355, I know condolences can be left at the website set up for the purpose. However, the library is keeping every last teddy bear, jar of jelly beans, note, sign, and so on that's been left by the public at the mortuary, along the road leading up to the library, and at the library itself. They are going to present it all to Mrs. Reagan in some form.

I thought a printout of this read would give people who can't make it to Simi Valley or DC a way to tangibly participate, because it will be delivered to the library to take its place among all the other things the general public has brought there.

As sad as I am that this great man died, I am overjoyed that he lived. Mrs. Reagan, thank you for making his life worth living, in such a personal way. Thank you for sharing him with this wonderful nation, the world and a greatful people.

God's blessings to you and those you love.

Very fitting photo, FTD. Thank you for adding it to the thread.

Ooops, "I thought a printout of this read..." should be "thread."

Dear Mrs Reagan,

May God bless you and your remarkable husband for proving the power of faith, love and fidelity against an ungodly, hateful and fickle world.

He will rest in peace. May you rest easy in that knowledge and remain hopeful for your joyful reunion.

Sincerely,

A Proud American

Mrs. Reagan, we thank you for the grace and dignity you have demonstrated to all Americans and peoples around the world throughout your public life. Through your guidance, you have shown us how to serve, to lead, to love, to protect, to comfort, and to mourn.

Thank you for sharing Ronald Reagan with this nation and with the world. His unique gifts have changed the history of mankind, and his lifelong commitment to family, neighborhood, work, peace, and freedom will be remembered for ages in American history.

Mrs. Reagan:

You shared a lifetime with a wonderful partner. As much as he meant to you, I am sure that you know how much he meant to us. Thank you for sharing him with us.

We are saying prayers for his soul and for you and your family. The president knew well that he could never have changed the world without the strength you gave him. You were always there every step of the way. My family and I are grateful to both of you. That gratitude is immeasurable.

May the prayers and outpouring of love from around the world help sustain you. And may you know that someday you will join him again and touch the face of God.

[Wolfstar]

Thanks, Howlin. Please consider adding your own comments.

Thank you for this thread.

Thank you Mrs. Reagan for sharing your husband one final time with all of us!

When you waved to the crowd at Point Magu, your face lit up and it brought back wonderful memories of the many times the two of you turned and waved at the top of the steps.

God Bless and keep you in the days ahead.

[Wolfstar]

Thanks, Doug.

Thanks, PKM. I don't know a more hard-working Reaganite foot soldier than you.
