He will be missed.

I remember his talks with Gorbachev, that started the end of the cold war..the berlin wall coming down.

Please be respectful..

a sad day for all Americans and all of humanity.

he has returned home to walk with the Lord

"In closing, let me thank you, the American people, for giving me the great honor of allowing me to serve as your president. When the Lord calls me home, whenever that day may be, I will leave with the greatest love for this country of ours and eternal optimism for its future. I now begin the journey that will lead me into the sunset of my life. I know that for America there will always be a bright dawn ahead" -- Ronald Reagan

May his family and friends be in all of our prayers.

A sad day for us here in the United States and for all who respected him. Rest in peace, Ronald Reagan.

I think that Ronald Reagan had a tremendous influence on his era and on this country. May he rest in peace.

A great leader has passed, hopefully he will be remembered as the great man he was. At least he died at home, with his family. Hopefully it was peaceful and painless.

The link didn't work for me.

He was a great leader and did a lot of great things... someone mentioned that he was at home with his family, which is a good thing.

Former President Ronald Reagan -- who led a conservative revolution that set the economic and cultural tone of the 1980s, hastened the end of the Cold War and revitalized the Republican Party -- died Saturday aged 93. "During the years of President Reagan, America laid to rest an era of division and self-doubt, and, because of his leadership, the world laid to rest an era of fear and tyranny,"
by President Bush (the second one lol)

Oh, man. C-SPAN has been airing several of the speeches Reagan did while as President. The most touching one was his farewell address in the Oval Office. They don't make politicians like him anymore.

whether you liked or disliked his policies (and I did) he certainly said what he believed and then did it. that's hard to find today in anyone, much less a pol.
