Ted Kennedy

With the passing of Ted Kennedy I find it hard to believe that he is the last of the political Kennedy brothers.  I saw JFK assassinated, I saw RFK assassinated and now Teddy dies from a brain tumor, what a family and what a legacy. Sadly for Teddy he will forever be linked to Mary Jo Kopechne on that fateful night on Chappaquiddick Island.  He extricated himself from the car and ran for help but left Mary Jo drowning in the car and eventually she died there. She never got married, she never had children, she will never live to be middle aged or elderly, Ted Kennedy took her life away from her on that fateful evening and sad to say when you say the name Ted Kennedy, that is what most people will always remember about him:
