That is probably one of my most distinct memories of my early years. :( I was 4, my youngest brother was 5 days old and it was my grandmother's 50th birthday. (Happy birthday, Granny D.) She had come to stay with us for a few days to help out. I didn't quite understand what was going on at the time, but it's one of those things I'll never forget. :(

I'm such a youngster (haha), I was not even born yet.

This was two years before I hit the ground.

Same here for me Deb. I was 6 and we were in the process of trying to move. The movers had packed all of our stuff and then it just sat there because everything was shut down for JFK's funeral. I just sat there and watched everything on our black and white TV.
