138. I was 7 in second grade
I remember the day they said he died and how we all cried and no one left the tv. The flag, the family it stays with me. I am from CA and my parents took me downtown to watch his brother drive down a street and I remember everyone being so happy and shouting I don't remember when that was as time is fuzzy back that far.

My mom loved Jackie and her style..we stayed up late listening with our parents to the returns the night they shot Robert and even as a child when the second Kennedy died it was like fear hit the country, like we weren't allowed to have populism here.
