Ronald Reagan was born in an apartment in Tampico, Illinois on February 6, 1911 above the H.C. Pitney Variety Store. Reagan had a deep belief in the goodness of people probably due to the optimism of his mother.onald learned first hand from his father about hard work and dedication, a work ethic he would adopt. His was charming and a good storyteller, a quality also learned by Ronald and embraced throughout his adulthood. A final aspect of the elder Reagan was his emphasis on judging the individual without prejudice.
In 1989, Reagan was made an Honorary Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath, one of the highest British orders (this entitled him to the use of the post-nominal letters GCB but, as a foreign national, not to be known as Sir Ronald Reagan); only two U.S. presidents have received this honor since attaining office, Reagan and George H. W. Bush., while Dwight D. Eisenhower received his before becoming President in his capacity as a general after World War II.
