Good Evening To Everyone,
I just wanted to share a moment with you which happened to me just a short time ago.
I was going through all the Reagan notes about the Funeral Plans, and the Scheduling of Events which were listed on the computer, and so forth.
There was note that said if you wished to sign a Condolence Book for the Regan Family, please feel free to do so at the end of the notes.
So, I gathered my courage, and sat here and wrote Mrs. Reagan and her family a letter, saying that President Reagan had been a wonderful example of human kindness and decency, and that he would be remembered by America as a warm and caring person. I went on to say that Mrs. Reagan and her family would be in our hearts and prayers throughout this difficult time. I said that we felt deeply for her pain in helping President Reagan over this very debilitating illness, and that he had indeed reached the sunset of his life, much to the credit of his loving wife and family. I also went on to say that we felt a special bond with them because of Bill's illness, and that we would always have them in our hearts and prayers. We were asked to leave our name, address, phone number, and e-mail address.
Much to my absolute amazement, about ten minutes later, I received an e-mail from a gentlemen who was the Executive Director of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library And Museum. He thanked me profusely for our letter to Mrs. Reagam and her family. He explained that, of course, Mrs. Reagan would not have time to respond to these letters, but that a portion of them would be shown to her, and she would have the opportunity to respond later, perhaps. He went on to say that all letters would be put in the Museum and Library, for everyone to read whenever they would like to do so.
I was absolutely very surprised at this, but I feel gratified that Mrs. Reagan and her family will have the opportunity to read some of the Nation's expression of support for her in her family's time of soorow. I do feel that we must all come together at a time like this, and show our support for someone who is grieving. Mrs. Reagan and her family has been a beautiful example of love and peace, and has indeed guided President Reagan through his difficult experience, down the road and into the sunset of his life.
May President Reagan rest in peace as he finally touches the face of God, and may Mrs. Reagan and her family live in the peace and love which they so richly deserve,
