4. Me too....

I remember the other two, so young when they were called away...

In many ways Ted was the most effective, the most accomplished of the four...

But the tragedy of the three older brothers will always over shadow Ted...

6. All four

died while in service to this nation. You can't ask a family to give more.

16. they overlook his sister Kathleen who died in Europe during WWII

I believe in a plane crash.

Joe-shot down
Kathleen-killed in crash
Rose-mentally retarded, had a lobotomy (Rose didn't know)
John-murdered on tv
Bobby-murdered on tv
Eunice-just passed away

They had heartache they didn't need but for a desire to serve

12. This was started before that thread. It doesn't matter, it can handle two.

13. that seems unlikely.

the first response in the other thread was at 8:01 a.m. - can't understand why the OP has the time it has, that makes no sense to me. Maybe that is when it was added to the OP's journal.

17. Hunh. That's strange.

:shrug: Maybe the first poster was psychic and just anticipated the OP... Nah, your Journal theory is probably right.

19. When I heard of his death I had a picture of JFK Jr embracing him,

both all smiles...

then I realized he'd have a hell of a reunion awaiting him...may it be so.

as he steps on the boat he stands straight, the years fall away and he is freely sailing...laughing
