Where exactly were you when J.F.K. was assassinated?
Where exactly were you when J.F.K. was assassinated?
I still remember as if it were yesterday.
I was standing at the corner of Broad and Market Streets in Newark, New Jersey waiting for a bus. I had a half day off from my job as secretary at Continental Insurance Company.
People starting buzzing. I think the bus stop was in front of a Nedick's Hot Dog place......so someone must have had a t.v. or radio on.
Everyone began telling each other that J.F.K. had been shot........
The rest is history. That night my "boyfriend", later to be husband, and I took a ride into Manhattan where all the lights were out......
On our car radio, funereal type music was playing. It was all very somber.
Days later.........my mom and I had the t.v. on and witnessed LIVE Jack Ruby shooting Lee Harvy Oswald as he was being walked through the crowd.
