I felt so sorry for Nancy Reagan today. I think that the applause was in questionable taste. All in all, I think that the ceremony in the Rotunda of the U.S. Capitol was dignified and worthy of a President.
Times are changing. People applaud in some churches these days. That would never have happened in my youth.

I think that the applause was meant as a heartfelt show of compassion and also a thank you for her service and perserverance as well.

I do hope, before I die, that I will hear a round of applause without the "whoo's and whoo hoo's." That, in many cases, I find disrespectful.
