I was a 12 year old at Sacred Heart School in Manitowoc WI. I remember our Prinicpal on the intercom announcing our President had been shot .We all went in to the church and we started to say the rosary led by our parish preist. Soon afterward it was announced that Kennedy had died. Every person sobbed and we were all in shock, adults and children alike that this could happen. School closed and we were all sent home to our mothers.. who were also sobbing. A very sad day for us all!!!!!!!!!
