What a glorious sendoff Washington is giving our late President. Not wanting to be redundant, I do want to share my experience from standing in line from 7:30 p.m. until we entered the Rotunda at 12:10 a.m. I was surrounded by a real snapshop of America — the most diverse crowd I have ever seen…. But [what impressed me the most] were the two blind people in line. Think about it for a minute — blind people standing in the heat for hours on end to pay tribute to someone they [likely] had never seen or would never see. Amazing — God bless America and God bless the Gipper.
