John F. Kennedy Jr. Memorial
Only hours after a bust of his father, President John F. Kennedy was unveiled in tribute to the 30th Anniversary of Apollo 11, the plane carrying John F. Kennedy Jr, his wife, Carolyn Bessette and her sister, Lauren Bessette was reporting missing.
For those of us who remember the tragic death of his father, the death of his namesake is too painful to conceive.
When John Kennedy was killed, our nation lost it's innocence and it's way. When Bobby died, our last hope of reconciliationdied with him. And now with John Jr, what might be will never be known. In the days ahead we must pray for our country in hopes that one day the dream will come alive once more.

These words spoken by Robert Kennedy about the death of his brother John apply to John F. Kennedy Jr. as well.
