Actually, did a google search, Prescott Bush ended his congressional career in January, 1963. He did not stand for reelection in 1962. He died in 1972. Anyway, out of politics when Kennedy was assassinated.

Prescott Bush served as a captain of artillery (the same rank held by Harry S. Truman) during World War I. After the war he became a businessman, eventually settling in Connecticut and working in New York's banking industry. He was elected U.S. senator as a Republican from Connecticut in 1952, following the mid-term death of senator Brien McMahon. Bush was reelected in 1956 and retired after that term ended in 1963.
