Wonderful article. I can’t imagine what that must have been like but your article helps some. Ironic, though, I just found a copy of the L.A. Times with Kennedy Assasinated as the headline in our garage this past weekend. It is now sealed and safe inside. In a way it reminds me of the chaos after 9-11 and all the rumors flying afterwards. Sad times, my friend, sad times.

Great article,I was not even born when that sad day happen.
I can not even imagine what people who have lived that moment felt.
It must be very difficult time to lose such a great president.
And I hope we have grown as a society to never allow anything like that happen again.
Thanks lot for posting and sharing your experience.
By the way are very good writer.Mr Donnell
I remember when it happened. I was watching the motercade when the shots were fired. It was unbelievable. I will never forget it. I think everoone remembers what they were wer doing when they first heard the news. Great article, Ruby
How coincidental, I just pulled out JFK last night and watched it, because I too always think of him at this time of the year. Although it was just a little before I was born, I can remember so very much about those times.
I remember our family getting together every year, for two birthdays, the same week as the anniversary of his death. Each of those November birthdays for years, the family would watch the tapes from Dallas and the tears would always start anew. I cried last night for him and again tears spring forth reading this tonight. Thanks John. You were definitely inspired.
Great article. I wasn’t born yet when Kennedy was assassinated but I’m sure it was as shocking as the day when World Trade Towers got hit.

My name is Elcin. I am from Azerbajan. JFK one of the favorite man who I want to be. His life, his family, is always interested me a lot. I always ask to myself why had been killed JFK. What was wrong he had done? I can not find the answere this question. His family was one of the most popular in the country.
The other day I saw a re-broadcast of a show about the assassination. I used to think there was a conspiracy, but with newer technology, like a computer animation showing where the shot came from, it seems pretty clear that Oswald acted alone. It’s a tragedy that a President of such promise and hope could be killed by a crazy, lonely man like Oswald with a one-in-a-million shot like that.
This was a bit before my time but, I remember watching footage of the happening and I was truly disturbed and saddened. This was a great look back at a day that should have never happened.
I remember when he got shot too. I stayed home from school that day and was watching the parade on television. Seeing it happen live was very upsetting.

Thanks for sharing this story. It must have been a very sad day for so many. I know that just watching the old footage on TV and knowing what a great loss of a leader America suffered, I am sadened. My grandmother and mom too can remember exactly where they were, what time it was, who they were with, etc… when they heard.
