Wally on Reagan's Passing

Wally had some kind words for former President Reagan.

"President Reagan's passing is a merciful thing for his family and all of his loved ones," said Congressman Wally Herger. "President Reagan will be remembered as the man most responsible for bringing down the Berlin Wall and the fall of communism. He will go down in history as one of our nation's greatest and most loved leaders."

Herger said that President Reagan was one of the main reasons he ran for public office. "He was a role model for me when I was first elected."

"Ronald Reagan brought hope and a positive attitude to Americans at a time when our nation most needed it during the late 1970s and 1980s," Herger said. He always believed in the American dream."

How Reagan receives credit for the demise of Soviet Communism is wrapped around his deep faith and belief in prayer and the power of God.
