I'm sure other, much more politically-minded, and intelligent bloggers will write some great posts on the Reagan legacy. I'll leave that to them.

My grandfather taught me a little about Reagan. At the time though, I was too young to really care. My grandfather worked on Reagan's national campaigns, and Reagan appointed my grandfather Commissioner of the International Joint Commission, a treaty organization tasked with resolving and preventing problems between the United States and Canada.

My grandfather had nothing but praise for Ronald Reagan--especially as a person. To me, that's what matters most.

Rest in peace, Mr. President.

Below is my favorite pic of Ronald Reagan. My grandfather had this picture up in his home, with a nice note from Reagan handwritten below. It now hangs in my dad's office at home.
