Reply #27: I was a little kid... [View All]

Just recovering from scarlet fever... my parents and grandparents were crying... when I learned why, I cried too. My folks made sure I sat and watched the President every time he spoke on TV... he was talked about fondly, like he was part of the family. I loved seeing his kids playing... Caroline and I were very close in age as I recall.

The day of the funeral was very sad... I remember wailing because Caroline and Little John's daddy was in a box covered by a flag, never to play with them again.

That was a long time ago, and I was just a little girl... but the memories cause tears to well even now.

As for The Warren Commission Report... that was my first introduction to pure bullshit. My folks didn't believe it back then, and I never have either.
