Where Exactly Were YOU On That Fateful Day?

[TheMom]

I was 3 - chances are I was outside climbing a tree.

Putting aside the fact that I have no idea what the f*** you just said, I'll just relate that I was in 4th grade, in art class.   My father LOATHED the Kennedys, so needless to say, I heard a lot of that growing up.  He loved the schadenfreude of Chappaquiddick, I must say.

But I DO remember sitting in our den, watching the funeral on TV, and noticing tears streaming down his face.   I'll never forget that.

Yeah... what the hell was that??

I was in 4th grade.  I had bad asthma as a boy and I needed shots twice a week which required my mother and me to take a rural bus into Milwaukee.  It made for a long journey but I got out of school for the morning.  Anyway, my mom promised we would stop at Woolworth's and look at their pet turtles.  We were looking at turtles when a sales lady told us the President had been shot.  I'll never forget it.
