I've been watching on & off all day. Lots of tears for me, too. Poor Nancy looks so frail, almost transparent. I wonder how much longer she will be with us.
As for Margaret Thatcher, I admit that I was uncomfortable with her speech. I thought it was rather harsh to keep bringing up the "evil empire" and other provocative phrases, knowing that Gorbachov would be there.
I believe it is Reagan's greatest legacy that, under his watch, the Cold War between us ended.
Let the Cold War animosities get behind us, as well.... not forgotten, but maybe not thrown in Gorbachov's face.
Loved that fabulous hat on her, though
