Hey Mark;

This is just an amazing series of pictures. I love, love, love ceremony, and occasion. Your images have captured that part of the week's events so beautifully. I do regret some of the comments posted missed the point of this gallery.

It's amazing that so many individuals come on to galleries like this and complain about other countries and its leaders. Especially given the fact that any one of them could have grown up to accomplish such feats, but chose instead to spend their life complaining. Besides, take the time to see the accomplishments of your own country for a moment. I wonder what would happen if the USA decided one day to pull ALL humanitarian aid out from under the world's feet?

Mark, what is so professional about Reagan ? Please, explain if you can. All we know is that he left disastrous economic legacy to the following president,- Clinton, who's sexual revolutioner... Nevermind his Ronny's "achivements" with Grenada and other helpless countries... Suggestion,- join Don Northup's club, you're gonna love each other. He's under " minoltaman" script. Cheers , bud...

Funny thing is,- you all know, ya.ya.ya, that you're the most fucked up country in the history of man kind and you have to be proud of baby killers raised by yourselves, shame on you, fuckers and your fashist president. ask Japanese hibakusiays what they think about your shity america, or better indians sioux who you destroyed as nation. you cowards and the only reason me not post my name is that you scared whole world not to be democratic and chase down those who think different

So... just another miserable puppet of yours... low scale actor managed to get to the top of American pyramide... whatever you say, world hates you and him, make baloons fly high, and enjoy your pathetic life values. Is there any difference between Arnold or Reagan or urinal at ALL ?

Nice gallery of photos. Thanks for sharing. Too bad others have to be so political. We're all going there soon enough - so speak no ill of the dead.

I really hate when Americans claims that Latin America was going to fell under the evil power of comunism... God!, It makes me furious!... You should be more respecfull. Understand this: I WILL NEVER THANK NO AMERICAN FOR HELPING THE MILITARY KILLED MY PEOPLE. Go celebrate Kissinger Nobel price if you want...

I left no email address cos of flamers like you who would abuse me.
This is a great country and Regan made it safer by standing toe to toe with the Commies until they backed down. He saved the world and you should be thank God Almighty that you can live in a democracy and not some fascist state because of heroes like our fallen president.

too bad that Ian left no contact-address, i would like to ask him where he lives that he thinks "the world is a safer place"

I hate to see the negative comments on the death of a great man. He had his faults but he was on the winning side. What other country could have a president who had been a top movie star and radio announcer. RR made the world a safer place. He may started wars in central America but better these countries were ruined than fell to the evil of communism. Arms to Iran was necessary inder the circumstances. Regan's investment in nuclear weapons and his threat to put nukes in orbit has made the world a safer place.

There's always a couple of A..holes in every crowd. Commies!!
Guest 23-Jun-2004 20:43
thnx for editing all the negative comments out of this fawning piece of crapola gallery, he was a fascist, Halliburton runs your country and you don't have an exclusive right to any god. And no god exists except in the minds of derranged Yanko's, who now have God based diets....your country will rot in it's own stench & go the way of all despotic empires.....nighty night

Thanks for taking these pictures Mark and sharing them with the rest of the world.

Thank you for these photographs Mark.
Ten years of Alzheimer’s disease is such a terrible thing.
My heart went out to his family.
Coleen 16-Jun-2004 03:48
Thank you for taking these wonderful photos. This is a part of our American history whether we liked the man or not. He was our President and for that he should be respected.

Guest 13-Jun-2004 09:16

Even though I did not like his policies I found myself sucked into the tv watching the funeral. You have to admit he was charismatic and funny. And well he is a huge part of American History, I think what got be most was seeing Mrs Reagan's grief and exhustion. She is a remarkable woman. Ok I'm babbling. Thanks Mark for sharing these photos. It's sad that it takes a funeral to bring all of our presidents under one roof at a few inches of each other.

I disagree...Reagan was a tool of the exreme right who have overtaken the reformist Republican party of, for example, "Fighting Bob" LaFollette. (Richard Nixon referred to his type of Republican as "cloth coat.") Reagan was the pretty face and smooth communicator who was recruited to "star" in the GE Theatre weekly program so that he could become a familiar face prior to running him for governor of California and then the presidency of the US. The end result of this type of public relations politics is Bush pretending to land on the deck of an aircraft carrier and addressing the sailors present (who had no choice but to be present) in front of a sign reading "mission accomplished."

Don Northup12-Jun-2004 06:13

Guest 10-Jun-2004 20:01
Thanks for sharing these... it must have been a moving experience to witness the procession regardless of one's feelings about the man or his presidency. I'd have liked to been there.
virginiacoastline10-Jun-2004 17:26
