As first lady, Nancy Reagan lent her support to the Foster Grandparent Program, the subject of her 1982 book, To Love A Child, and concentrated on the fight against drug and alcohol abuse among young people. Mrs. Reagan also directed a major renovation of the second and third floors of the White House during her time as First Lady, and commissioned a presidential state china service in striking red, gold, and white from Lenox China in Trenton, New Jersey in 1981. With her passing, the White House Historical Association joins the nation in its remembrance of a first lady with tremendous grace, intelligence, and style.
