I call on the American people to assemble on that day in their respective places of worship, there to pay homage to the memory of President ...
We mourn the loss of such a leader, and our 38th President will always have a special place in our Nation's memory.
He was a true gentleman who reflected the best in America's character.
May God bless Gerald Ford.
