First Lady Mrs. Gerald Ford age 93.


She payed her dues conquering alcohol and drug abuse, and set a center
for those rehabilitating those same afflictions.


She was a class act.


actually they both were. as a young liberal coming off the nixon
years, gerald ford made me realize not all conservatives were insane.


I was impressed when he told congress something like "I'm not here to
fight with you, I'm here to work with you...."


boy that spirit is long dead!
