                A Proclamation

                As a further mark of respect to the memory of Gerald R. 
                Ford, the thirty-eighth President of the United States,

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the 
                United States of America, by the authority vested in me 
                by the Constitution and laws of the United States, in 
                honor and tribute to the memory of Gerald R. Ford, and 
                as an expression of public sorrow, do appoint Tuesday, 
                January 2, 2007, as a National Day of Mourning 
                throughout the United States. I call on the American 
                people to assemble on that day in their respective 
                places of worship, there to pay homage to the memory of 
                President Ford. I invite the people of the world who 
                share our grief to join us in this solemn observance.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                twenty-eighth day of December in the year of our Lord 
                two thousand six, and of the Independence of the United 
                States of America the two hundred and thirty-first. 
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)
