Patricia Kennedy Lawford, the sister of President John F. Kennedy and wife of actor Peter Lawford, died at her New York home of complications of pneumonia on Sunday, according to a family statement. She was 82.
"My sister Pat is irreplaceable," Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (news, bio, voting record) said in a statement. "Everyone who knew Pat adored her. She was admired for her great style, for her love and support of the arts, her wit and generosity — and for the singular sense of wonder and joy she brought into our lives."
Lawford is survived by four children and 10 grandchildren. Memorial and funeral arrangements are pending
Doesn't sound like Pat and Ted had much in common?
nope
This is so unfair - I'll bet she wasn't a drunken, womanising drug addict...
Or a murderer.
Prayers to Pat and her family.
Nope. I met her once at a Special Olympics event. Full of genuine kindness. The Kennedy women need an extra measure of grace to live cheek to jowl with such pigs as their men.
Another tearful opportunity for the Clintons.
She was a wonderful lady.
Sending prayers
Four children, ten grandchildren. She had a nice life.
You are absolutely correct.
The first time I met her was during a memorial for Kennedy in Chapel Hill back in the late 60's; I was astounded at the wrinkles on her face even back then......and I was completely won over by her graciousness!
I've seen her several times since then at Special Olympic events and though I'm sure she doesn't, she always acts like she remembers me.
So how old is Ted the pig?
RIP. My condolences to the entire family.
He was the last of Joe's litter. Now keep in mind that boars can live quite a while even in spite of the fact that he was the runt.
Last interview with Patricia Kennedy Lawford, December 2005:
Q - "Patricia, if there was one thing you could attribute to your living such a long and fulfilling life, what would you say that thing would be?"
A - "Well, there are a number of things, first of all is faith in God, and the power of prayer, second is the love shared with family members and loved ones, and especially staying the Hell out of Ted's '67 Oldsmobile, that drunk can't drive worth a tinker's damn!"
ROFL... where was that fom?
Mary Jo Kopenche was not available for comment.
I believe that was with some college radio news department, I seem to think it was Ithaca? Not 100 percent sure, but I sure ROFL'd when I read it earlier this year!
