Seems like I heard he was battling pneumonia or some such health problem. He was before my time, but may he rest in peace.

Too bad. A West Michigan rep for many years. His presidential museum is in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He'll be missed.

With all due respect, could we amend the headline to say "President Ford..."? Thanks, Borges, for the post.

God bless him and provide solace to his family (is Betty still living?).

God bless him! He was a good man thrust into an impossible situation and he did his best despite everything arrayed against him. People made fun of him, but I always respected his ability to rise above all that and carry on.

From the AP:

Former President Ford Dead at 93

Gerald R. Ford, who picked up the pieces of Richard Nixon's scandal- shattered White House as the 38th and only unelected president in America's history, has died, his wife said. He was 93.
