Hi Jim, Your comments bring up a very important aspect to JFK's last days. Reporters say that Kennedy was tremendously overjoyed and quite smitten with the people of and his visit to the nation of Ireland in the summer of '63. He had opportunity to meet his kinfolk and the experience for him was in his words, one of the happiest times of his life. The Robin Ward song was always a favorite of mine. Just a great arrangement and storyline that whether you were a guy or a girl...you always hoped for when summer came around, that is...to meet a summer love you'd remember for the rest of your days. The juxtaposition of that song and the events of the weekend is one that will probably stand out as much as any other aspect of this time in history. Very appropriate and relevant comments, Jim. Thanks, Bob
