REQUIESCAT IN PACE: RONALD WILSON REAGAN, 1911-2004
I was born a little more than a month before Reagan's first inauguration. He was president throughout my formative years, and even though he's been absent from the public scene for nearly a decade it's still hard to imagine a world without him.
He was one of the giant figures of the 20th century, but others, who were grown in his era, can speak better on that. I pause only to note the passing of a great man.
(Echoing Jonah Goldberg, I commend you to the Irish wake over at FoxNews. Every death is sad in its fashion, but Reagan lived a long, full life, and he lived to see his life's work, the defeat of Soviet communism, accomplished. Pray God, he will quickly come into his reward. Celebrate him, drink a toast tonight in his honor. Do not weep for him, but be glad.)
