McKeesport's statue of John F. Kennedy was reportedly the first one erected in the United States following his assassination on Nov. 22, 1963.
Dedicated in 1965, the monument stands along Lysle Boulevard, next to the parking lot where the president gave a speech in 1962. #jfk60 #jfkassassination

#JFKAssassination #JFK60 Since my birthday is only one week ago ( and 60 I'm too) . Not long ago I buyed the video DVD about Jackies behaviour and legacy that she called Camelot for her time in the White House. I guess it was Natalie Portman acting as Jacky.

60 years after JFK’s assassination, Secret Service members share memories in new documentary
“They still feel it and think about it and, actually, they’re incredibly vivid in their recall of it. They’re incredibly emotional about it still,” executive producer David Glover added. “That leads to a very intense documentary and, in a way, their age just adds to that intensity rather than diminishing from it.”

Regarding the lingering impact of his death, Payne said it’s reduced, noting that there are very few people living in the city today who remember the assassination. He noted that at the time of Kennedy’s death white people were the largest demographic by far in the city. Now, census data shows white people make up about 54% of the city’s population, with Hispanics comprising about 42%.
