61. In 5th grade
We had the day off of school due to parent teacher conferences. We were at the bowling alley. We had a school bowling league and instead of going after school that Friday, we went in the morning.

One of the 6th graders came running into the bowling alley yelling that the president had been shot. It was around noon and it was a Friday.

Then I remember just watching TV for days on end. That was unusual back then.

This was also the first time I saw my mom cry.
