No funeral for a public figure has affected me like this since JFK in 1963.

1. JFK...had more charisma than any other president

I have seen on TV broadcasts.

2. I was 11 and watched it too....

My letter from JFK will be 58 years old come December. One of my most pried memories.

3. Possibly because the void being left will be filled

With darkness.
I am overwhelmed with sadness.

4. i agree, the pink cadillacs really got me,

as well as the standing O for our true president, and Rev Jackson telling everyone to get registered.

eyes were wet all day.

(wrong funeral?)

7. me too -

I knew it was the end of something good in our country.

8. exactly

I am always much more saddend at a funeral for a Democrat than a Republican

9. That loss was arguably bigger, but, for me personally, this one was just more wrenching

That statement is NOT political.

You would probably have to know me to understand.
