In Angels Don't Die, Patti Davis pays moving tribute to her father, the former US President Ronald Reagan, and to the gifts of spirituality he bestowed on her
Ronald Reagan's political career has been observed from every angle, but his role as a father to his daughter has been seen only in the harsh light of Davis' well-publicized tensions with Nancy Reagan. But now, Davis has reconciled with her mother and the catalyst was Angels Don't Die. In fact, her parents were so touched by the book they have contributed introductory comments.
Angels Don't Die is a moving tribute to Ronald Reagan's spiritual strength and offers an intimate portrait that will appeal to people everywhere who admire the Reagans, as well as to anyone contending with the challenges of parent-child relationships. This book is both a spiritual elegy and a letter from the heart that reunited an estranged family--an inspiration to all.
Ronald Reagan reassured his daughter when she was a child of eight or nine and concerned that "it was true that every time a star falls it means an angel has died." "Angels don't die," he responded, with the simplicity and sincerity that marked his religious beliefs. In this slim volume, Davis talks about the gift of faith Reagan has shared with her. Childhood stories about angels, prayer, and fireflies segue into her own rebellious and angry feelings in early adulthood and lead finally into a peaceful conviction--" a deep, resilient faith that God's love never wavers." Though many may find startling the contrast between Davis' tone here and in her earlier literary efforts, some quite critical of Dad, this appreciative testimony offers touching insights into the faith and private life of the former president, now suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
