Things always seem to get better sooner or later at least granting us enough hope to keep putting one foot before the other. Let us all hope for better days to come.Nancy Simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06468975663711270696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-857504271006815554.post-31443852824078309962013-11-26T15:59:33.649-08:002013-11-26T15:59:33.649-08:00As frightened as I was at Western Carolina, it mus...As frightened as I was at Western Carolina, it must've been terrifying to be in Miami, such a short distance from missiles pointing toward the US from Cuba. We only had a few TV's on campus and everyone crowded around them between classes. War seemed inevitable and I expected the next loop past the TV to confirm it.<br />Tragic that the secretary cheered Kennedy's death. I heard a few students laughing about the assassination but most of were devastated.Thanks for sharing your memories of those horrible few days!

We have to keep remembering the past, telling our stories. Otherwise we are lost.Kathryn Stripling Byerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17867152753841610044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-857504271006815554.post-23495935063036736842013-11-23T21:51:13.251-08:002013-11-23T21:51:13.251-08:00Thanks for sharing your story, Nancy.
Those of us ...Thanks for sharing your story, Nancy.<br />Those of us living at that time will never forget that awful day. <br />Sadly there are Americans living today who would cheer if our president was killed. <br />I don't understand such hate.Glenda Beallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17953170428175025248noreply@blogger.com
