A Wonderful Interpretation from a Cllose Personal Friend

Story is written by someone who, at the beginning, does not know Nancy Reagan well. During her tenure as both an employee and a friend, she develops a good understanding of the First Lady Nancy becomes. She is strong, fiercely protective, and has a great sense of family. I get the impression that she has a great Sense of humor also.o
