Looking over this thread is making me cry.
I watched so much of the Reagan ceremonies. I remember most Thatcher in the church, looking frail and slumped but yet there she was, ensuring she was there in tribute, big trip and long ceremonies and all.
I sooo miss these great people and the era they dominated. Things were so different.
God bless Lady Thatcher, and I hope she will have ceremonies I can watch.
Between Thatcher and Reagan, the shoes they left can not/will not be filled.
It is up to us to see that their place in history is revered and recorded fairly and justly..
My favorite moment was at the graveside service, when, as the sun was setting so beautifully over his favorite place, his favorite politician lingered at his tomb, curtsied, and strode away.
