I was in school (VCHS) when Kennedy was killed. Very sad day as we were taught by Irish Presentation brothers who really related to Kennedy and his Irish cabinet.They used to say that the world was ruled by people of Irish descent and what great things that little island had given the world.BrianBrian Geareyhttp://winnipeg1.multiply.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6464100720604662734.post-7135380857458034442009-07-18T13:34:26.000-07:002009-07-18T13:34:26.000-07:00Les, I haven't heard that song in so long - it...Les, I haven't heard that song in so long - it's a great one alright. I was 16 and had just graduated from high school and was going to the Motherhouse. I think it was a Friday - anyway there was a hairdressing school on the corner of Guy and St. Catherine and that is where I was - getting my hair cut for cheap. The video said he died at 2 - we got out of the Maison Mere at 12 - all of a sudden there was a lot of commotion and talking in the place and I got a gist of what had happened - as soon as I got out of there, I rushed home and listened to the news non-stop.Sandy Walshhttp://sandywest.multiply.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6464100720604662734.post-61550589691591926172009-07-18T13:18:50.000-07:002009-07-18T13:18:50.000-07:00Your right Sandy & I remember when it happened...Your right Sandy & I remember when it happened how alot of the adults around me were sad on hearing this news,they sent us home from school early that day,...........<br /> Seems as the old song said "It seems the good they die young" <br /> Abraham , Martin & John,,,,,,,here's the video fromYoutube<br /> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dHvYB5JdSs">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dHvYB5JdSs</a> <br /><br /> here's another version with a gal singing it,she's good too<br /> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsYscCNWRiY">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsYscCNWRiY</a>Les Fhttp://lesf.multiply.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6464100720604662734.post-73902450641810240842009-07-18T12:59:06.000-07:002009-07-18T12:59:06.000-07:00That Kennedy video is so sad - I hope the two of t...That Kennedy video is so sad - I hope the two of them are meeting up again right now.Sandy Walshhttp://sandywest.multiply.comnoreply@blogger.com
