7:45pm ET is when the plane lands in CA. The service starts at 9:15pm ET and concludes about 10:30pm ET.


Thank you, Brent.


All of it won't be on TV though. I do hear that the three Reagan children will speak and we'll see that, but not the actual burial.


Probably networks like CNN and FOX News will cover it. I get those stations here at the apartment.

I don't be-LIEVE what I'm seeing; Slick Willie, even in his sleep, has that "knowing smirk" on his face! :eek:

I wonder who he got past Hillary's surrogate's (read: Bill's "secretary") watchful eye lately?

NBC, ABC, CBS, and FOX are also going to cover it apparently. NBC will have Dateline with the Procession at 8pm(ABC and CBS with other programming), FOX will be live from 730pm on. Then at 9pm, All the networks will be Live, with everyone going off by 1030pm when the service ends. I keep hearing private, which I thought meant NOT ON TV, but apparently that isn't the case.

I just watched the funeral procession leave out
in CA, on Fox. I could not believe how strong
Nancy was while I sat in my recliner and bawled
my eyes out!

I think our military has to be commended for their wonderful performance as part of these funeral activities. Not once did I see anyone out of step, all their movements were done with respect and precision.

The cadet that is singing "Precious Lord" (I'm not sure of the exact name of the song) is making me bawl my eyes out as well! :cry:

I'm watching it on C-Span now.

I heard a description about Nancy earlier...she may look fragile on the outside but on the inside strong as STEEL! Truly she is a remarkable woman!

I am watching right now and they are close to burial. The jets just flew over and poor Nancy shreiked at the sound. This day must be so physically and mentally tiring on her but yet she remains so strong. Such an incredible woman, the wife of an incredible man...
