Nancy Reagan placed a bouquet of white roses on the gravesite of her late husband Ronald Reagan Tuesday to mark the eighth anniversary of the passing of one of America’s most beloved presidents.
Appearing frail in a red coat, the former first lady then sat by the 40th president’s gravesite at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, Calif.
Now 90, Nancy Reagan recently suffered broken ribs in a fall, and was reported to be recovering slowly.
The widow of President Reagan also made news recently by announcing her endorsement of GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney.
Having served lemonade and cookies to Mitt Romney and his wife, Ann, at her Los Angeles home, she said that she is firmly behind the former Massachusetts governor.

I miss the 80’s so much...
On particularly stressful news days I actually will watch hours of 80’s ads, and Reagan clips, on YouTube just to remember a age of sanity even if it’s in the form of old commercials.
I miss Ronnie so much.
The image of Nancy placing flowers on his grave brings
tears to my eyes.
We can’t let the vision of America that he held up
to us all die!
Obama must GO!
..my wife and I had the privilege of visiting the Reagan Ranch last summer. We stopped by the Library on our way home. We stood at his grave and wept—we really miss his leadership...
I fly in/out to/from Reagan DC airport frequently and the statue of him in front always gives me goosebumps.
When my wife and I get there, we will do the same...
I knew then, how great Reagan was.. but, I didn't know how RARE. :-(
bump that.
June 5, 2004 is a “I remember where I was” day for me.
The days of gentlemen.
RIP. Reagan was the only good President in my lifetime thus far, especially compared to the ones we’ve had since.
Timely (and highly relevant) message from a recovering Democrat- http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/ronaldreaganatimeforchoosing.htm
I remember when America had a REAL president!
What a privilege it was to live in America when Reagan was at the helm!
Ronald and Nancy Reagan were class people. No other President and First Lady has come close to their status in the white house
I have no tissues in my house...I have to poach TP to wipe my eyes and blow my nose.
(I’m being serious)
I felt like my King died that day. Thank you President Reagan for keep America alive for a few more decades so my son could taste freedom, if just for a while.
You have me crying like a 3 year old.
God Love You!!!
I am bawling myself. I miss him so much. I was so proud to cast my first ever vote for Presiden Reagan.
