Kopechne Cousin Letter to Editor
Edited on Thu Sep-03-09 07:11 PM by kskiska
WILKES-BARRE, Pa. -- This letter to the editor was published in the Times-Leader in Wilkes-Barre, Pa.

Kennedy, Kopechne: May they rest in peace

My first thought after learning of Ted Kenney’s death last week was that his death was really the end of the Kennedy era. In fact, the end of a whole generational era.
So many American memories are tied up with the Kennedy family. Good memories of space walks and civil rights, John-John and Caroline, touch football and the beauty and dignity of Jackie. And, of course, Chappaquiddick.
The next thing I thought was that hopefully Gwen, Joe and Mary Jo Kopechne and Ted Kennedy are all now at peace.

I guess that some things you just have to leave in God’s hands.
