Statement on the Death of Christopher Reeve
October 11, 2004

    Laura and I are saddened by the death of Christopher Reeve. Mr. 
Reeve was an example of personal courage, optimism, and self-
determination. He was brave in the face of adversity and was greatly 
admired by millions of Americans. He will be remembered as an 
accomplished actor and for his dedicated advocacy for those with 
physical disabilities. We send our prayers and condolences to his family 
and friends.
