"Today the state of Michigan mourns the death of former First Lady Nancy Reagan, a well-respected, devoted leader who used her role as First Lady to advocate for those less fortunate in our country. To this day, her ‘Just Say No’ campaign impacts the way this country talks about the dangers of drug abuse.
