He was the first foreign leader I remember seeing on T.V. I don't know how old I was. Was the assassination attempt in 1981? That's the year I was born and I don't know when his term ended but I always used to think he was a nice, friendly looking man when I saw him on tele. I preferred him to Gorbachov (bad spelling probably) because he didn't look as friendly.

Someone said 93 is a good age. Yeah it is, the man led a good life from what I know. R.I.P.
