I have thought about it many times, and now it seems appropriate to share this extraordinary incident. In 1980 I was sitting in my office in Charlotte, NC, when I received a call from the organizers of a political rally for Ronald Reagan, at that time running for the presidency of the United States. The gathering was to be held in one of the hangars at the Douglas International Airport in Charlotte. The person on the phone explained that a band was needed to play for the Reagan visit.
One of my duties was to direct the band of a private academy. The caller asked if our band, comprised of junior and senior high school students, would be able to play for the occasion, and I stated that we would be happy to do so.
Our instruments filled the hangar with sound as we played our music for the enthusiastic crowd that had gathered in anticipation of the arrival of Mr. Reagan.
As soon as he was spotted leaving the mammoth jet that had brought him to Charlotte, our band began to play as we had never played beforeselections such as Washington Post March and Stars and Stripes Forever. We continued to play as Reagans entourage made its way into the hangar, walking toward the platform built especially for the occasion.
Then something very unusual happened. Mr. Reagan abruptly left the group of media persons and dignitaries accompanying himwhich included one very famous United States senatorand instead of going to the platform as planned, walked directly toward our band and stood beside me, facing the musicians. He remained there until we finished playing. It was as though he thought, This is right where I want to be at this moment. He then smiled and in his kindness waved to the teenage band members and thanked them for playing for him. At that point he turned and resumed his campaign for the presidency.
How pleased we were with the kindness of this gentle, giant of a man, who paused in his quest to become not only the President of the United States, but the leader of the world, just long enough to say, Thank you to a group of teens who had done their best to honor him. This simple gesture of human kindness and gratitude taught us a valuable lesson and gave us a happy memory that we will carry throughout our lives.
Others have seen and experienced this godly trait in Mr. Reagan. Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who worked briefly with President Reagan, said, He was an extraordinarily kind man. I personally saw his kindness.
Peggy Noonan, one of Reagans speech writers, related that a few days after he was shot, his aides found him on his hands and knees in the bathroom of his hospital room, mopping up water hed spilled while at the sink. He told them that he didnt want to make a mess for the nurse and wanted to clean it up before she came back. He asked them if they could get him some more towels.
How did President Reagan become so kind? Well, first of all he became a follower of the Author of human kindness, Jesus Christ, who said, ...supplement your faith with . . . brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love (2 Peter 1:5, 7), and, Be kind to one another (Ephesians 4:32). It is reported that Reagan accepted Christ as his personal Savior while still in his teens. Then during his presidency he gave witness of his faith in Christ. On one notable day in 1981, shortly after the assassination attempt that nearly took his life, when asked if he were ready to meet God, Reagan re
