its odd - i feel slightly more emotional than i would have thought - expect andexpanded post friday on one of the greatest love stories of our time...god bless ronnie and nancy... (and ray charles - and my dear great aunt martha)
ok here goes - i didnt expect to see the ceremony in simi valley - and im so glad i did - its been really odd - i really have been kinda upset - not that i loved reagan politics - he is just the first president i can remember - one of my strongest childhood memories is when he was shot in 1980 - i was so mad that day as a 4 yr old boy - my cartoons were not on - and my dear departed grandama (mimi) was there that day - it certainly doesnt seem like 24 yrs ago - time sure does fly - and when i heard he passed away last week - i just didnt quite get the scope of it - well it's a only 1 week later - and i get the full scope now for sure - i was enthralled with all three children's speeches - i have always been a huge patty davis fan - and im so glad that she was able to make peace with her parents - and be there right beside dear mom nancy - i was so impressed and proud of all the american 'pomp and circumstance' - the dutch sure did have a warm and heartfelt send-off - and yes one more time - god bless nancy reagan - she stood by that man for over 50 yrs - with 10 dedicated to caring for him with alzheimers (in my opinion - the cruelest disease out there) - he died a long time ago when he could no longer rememeber his family - and now he has physically died - i respect and admire nancy as a strong woman - and as a true rock and icon for this great country - the poor thing must be beat - i was especially touched when she said her last goodbyes - and collapsed - only to be comforted by her children - i dont think that she will have the will or strength to be here to much longer - her heart belongs to ronnie - and i know she cant wait to be with her husband again - i know on popbytes my main rules are no politics or religion - but this goes far beyond politics - and i couldnt pass this up - may god keep ron - and bless nancy - popbytes respectfully out...
