RIP - it sounds like they had a wonderful long and happy marriage, so like Scott says above - they can now be together at last.
If his funeral was any indication hers will be very nice.
RIP Nancy. You are forever a part of American history.
It seems like more and more icons from the 80s are gone. I saw Ronald Reagan a couple of times in person. A larger than life figure. The guy had an amazing presence. Oddly the very last time I saw him he was carrying a surf board under his arm. He was speaking at Pepperdine University after his presidency. He must have been 80 or so at the time. They gave him the surfboard as a kind of gag gift because the school is in Malibu on the beach. You would expect him to sort of hand it off to some lackey at his age but instead he hoisted the thing under his arm, gave a wave, and left the auditorium carrying it. Pretty amazing. He had been a lifeguard earlier in his life but just a small example of how he knew how to work a crowd.
She stuck by 'her Ronnie' every day since they met. That's all I have to say about her.
...Hi Lin, hope you are hanging in sweetheart...you are never far from my thoughts.....
