NOVEMBER 22, 1963

November 22, 1963 - I was in the Music Library at Stetson University. Walked out of there and to the Hat Rack (student coffee shop) which was usually packed, loud and bustling. When I got there, everyone was seated, dead quiet and somber and Walter Cronkite's voice came over the overhead radio and said, "President Kennedy is dead." Never ever will I forget that moment in my life.
