STATEMENT OF SUSAN FORD BALES ON THE DEATH OF NANCY REAGAN

Nancy Reagan’s death leaves a deep sadness in America’s heart. I hold dear, as most certainly Dad and Mother did, Mrs. Reagan’s many personal kindnesses to us, both publicly and privately. The boundless love she shared with President Reagan is a shining example of devotion in the face of life’s struggles, and courage in times of great heartache. She contributed immeasurably to that “shining city on a hill” to which she and President Reagan served with such grace.
