I love the stories you tell of your childhood. You have very clear memories of things from way back in the day, much clearer than any of mine.

And you always have such great pictures! Who was the photographer in your family? And how on earth are they so well organized that you can find the ones you need?

You had to get under your desks?! And know that it wasn't a drill? How frightening!

I remember only sitting at my desk on that day. I believe there had been an announcement over the school PA that said JFK had been shot. I felt a shock goe through us all. I don't remember anything else about that day, or the days that followed.
