The Reagan Presidential Foundation this morning released the program for the ceremony. It reflected that former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney will read a letter that Ronald Reagan wrote to Nancy Reagan, and broadcaster Diane Sawyer will read a section from the Gospel of John. Also scheduled to deliver “reflections” are former Secretary of State James Baker, broadcaster Tom Brokaw and Nancy Reagan’s children, Patti Davis and Ronald Reagan. Opera soprano Ana Marie Martinez will sing. No role in the ceremony was listed for Michael Reagan, the adopted son of Ronald Reagan and his first wife, the late actress Jane Wyman.
