Ahhhh...so true Irish...of Nancy and her popularity. Especially after her shopping spree for new dishes when there was perfectly good china already in the big house! LOL!

But...her "Just say NO" policy still rings loud and clear in my head. Not that I ever said no...just that for a few of the more dangerous drugs...I never said YES! LOL!

Actually...she was/is an incredibly loving and devoted wife and First Lady...who, I think, BECAUSE of her visible strengths, was referred to as manipulating and bitchy. Tis the plight of many a strong woman. I admire and applaud her strength, courage and devotation to her husband...before, during and after his terms as president. Matter of fact...I respect her more since Ronald's onset of altzheimer's, and the inner strength she found to care for him to the end! I know how hard this illiness is on the family left behind. The patient isn't aware...but the family is in turmoil the entire time! May Nancy rest assured that she did all she could do to make Ron as comfortable as possible...and that now he, and therefore she, is out of pain and done with the suffering! I wish the family a fleeting mourning period and then many wonderful memories of this great man!
