        JFK would have passed away from natural causes long before the debut of Twitter.

        I know about the various maladies; I was trying to make a joke (and to appreciate his general eloquence) and, I guess, to remark on the absurdity of our current age. But yeah.

        Bugger! Because he died so young he still feels like the guy who stood up & said "Let's go to the moon." I guess the poem's right, "Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn." Kennedy will always feel like the young guy with a vision. Apollo is a mighty headstone!

        If only JFK, RFK, and JFK Jr didn't all tragically die so young. Wow, what a coincidence.

        Happy Birthday, JFK. Love the Wyeth family, including his dad—Andrew Wyeth, his aunt, Henrietta, married to artist Peter Hurd, who also painted President Johnson, and his grandfather N.C. Wyeth. Beautiful portrait. Sorry LBJ didn’t like his.pic.twitter.com/s1kCSO9OyX

        For me, President Kennedy is frozen in time, a young and inspirational man whose life stopped too soon. I can't even imagine him as an old man.

        Of course I promptly lost it. 😭 It was signed by his personal secretary, Evelyn Lincoln. She said the President is pleased to receive your birthday card, and wishes you a very happy birthday. 😉
