Ford was pro abortion and gave the world Jimmy Carter. Had a decent war record, was never terribly bright, no accomplishments in Congress, owes his fame to a desperate Richard Nixon. Imagine there is not much traffic visiting his grave. Still security should have had it on a surveillance monitor. Then again Grand Rapids is not the same place he once represented.

Ford sat on the Warren commission

My very first vote in our High School mock election was for Congressman Gerald Ford. I was 7th grade. Years later when he was House Minority leader he assisted me by intervening with INS who were giving us problems getting my Thai wife and our son here to the US.

Several years later that son became a member of the same BSA troop in which President Ford had been an Eagle Scout.

On one 4th of July the President was here taking part in the 4th of July parade. My son marched in the parade right behind the Presidents limo.

I sent President Ford a letter with photo thanking him for his help in getting my family here. I pointed out the troop number worn by my son was His too.

He replied with a nice letter which my son values.
