"My sister and I were home sick from school that day. I was playing with some toy cars under the kitchen table when my mom became very upset. Being almost, but not quite 7, I was most upset that regular TV programming was off the air so they could drone on and on about the assassination.

Walter Cronkite still bothers me."

"I was working in an engineering office and next door was a secured office.

And some guy looked over the top of the wall and said "Hey Kennedy" was assassinated.

I went to the hardwaare store and bought two more boxes of shells for my 3030 because I thought there was going to be a revolution.

That was one of the first incidences that was shown live. It probably added to the tension, not knowing things about Cuba and what was happening with that.

I thought I might have to defend myself and family from some kind of revolution."
