Yes, I was in the 9th grade-my speech teacher, Mr. Larsen came to class and told us President Kennedy had been shot.
We thought he was joking. When he said he was not, we all became very quiet.
In 1988, twenty-five years later Mr. Larsen and I were teaching at the same college. I sought him out and reminded him of that day. He remembered coming to our class and giving us the news.
So you and your teacher came around full circle - bound by tragedy. Thanks for sharing.
