I was in HS biology class when it was announced over the PA...sad day. |

I was in third grade when the principle came oner the P.A. and told us the president had been shot. About 45 min. later she came back and told us he was dead. School was cancelled for 5 days. A sad time for this country.:sadangel::halfmast:

My mom and I were lucky to see him in '62 when he toured San Diego. He drove by in the motorcade while we were on the sidewalk. |
I was a senior in high school but do not remember what class I was in. They announced it over the PA system and sent everyone home.
|
I was 3-1/2 years old so not a specific memory. :sadangel:

We only had 7 channels back then. And for 2 days that all that was on Television. That sucked as a kid.
|
10 years old, I was in 5th grade.
There wa a tv in the room, and the teacher turned it on after the announcement was made. Walter Chronkite was narrating a bunch of breaking news from his ear piece, but it didn't make much sense until I got home. I don't recall how long we stayed at school, perhaps 30 minutes, but we were dismissed early that day. |
