Does anyone know off-hand the last time a president filled a seat on the Supreme Court vacated by someone placed there by a president from the other party?

I forgot a couple: Sotomayor (Obama) for Souter (Reagan) Breyer (Clinton) for Blackmun (Nixon) But Souter and Blackmun had moved left, so not really an ideological change.

Also: Kagan (Obama) for Stevens (Ford) Another oddball case where the Republican appointee moved left.
