Reagan died Sunday in her home in Los Angeles of congestive heart failure at age 94.

Revered in Republican politics, Reagan was known as a fierce protector of her husband, both personally and politically. She also launched the “Just say no” anti-drugs campaign and advocated for stem-cell research later in life.
