The Grand Ronde Tribes of Oregon will be adding the late former president Ronald Reagan's name to the tribal veterans memorial.
Tribal members revere Reagan for signing their federal restoration into law in 1983. They plan to invite Nancy Reagan to a ceremony at the West Valley Veterans War Memorial. If she cannot attend, the tribe will send a blanket to her.
