I was the in the fourthgrade when Kennedy was shot.  I went to a small
country school which is church-affiliated.  Whenever a member of the
congreation died, the church bell tolled once for each year of the
member's life.  I remember that the church bell tolled such a short time
and our community was so small that it was a mystery who had died.  When
our minister came to tell us taht President Kennedy had been shot, I
remember thinking that the President was second only to God; shooting the
president was out of my realm of reality.
