John F. Kennedy, Jr. - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia His father was assassinated on November 22, 1963, three days before Kennedy Jr.'s third birthday, and the son's poignant salute of his father's casket during the funeral procession on his third birthday became a heartbreaking and iconic image of the 1960s. Kennedy, his wife, and his sister-in-law were traveling to attend the wedding of cousin, Rory Kennedy, which was subsequently delayed as a result of the accident. Kennedy's flight instructor (CFI) stated that he offered to fly with Kennedy on the fatal journey but Kennedy replied "he wanted to do it alone." The instructor also stated that he was uncomfortable with Kennedy making a flight alone in a high-performance aircraft at night, over open water and into haze. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/John_F._Kennedy,_Jr.   (807 words)

Guardian Unlimited Special reports John F Kennedy Jr John Jr's steadfastly noncommittal response when questioned about his ambitions may well have stemmed from the impact of the repeated appearance of his cousins and other family members in sensational headlines.

Washingtonpost.com: Remarkable Risk-Takers: A Clan Chooses the Edge "The Kennedy men all learn that living a life of physical courage is part of being a man, and there was probably some of that in John," said author Laurence Leamer, who has written a book about the Kennedy women and is working on another about the Kennedy men. In the younger generation of Kennedys, that fearless adventurism has sometimes played out in scandal: for example, the drug problems of Robert Jr., Patrick and David, who died of an overdose in 1984, or Michael's notorious involvement with his teenage babysitter. A zest for danger has always been part of the Kennedy legend: the late president's PT boat heroism, Sen. Robert F. Kennedy scaling a mountain that had never been climbed, even their sister Kathleen's death in a 1948 plane crash, after she was warned not to risk the trip. www.washingtonpost.com /wp-srv/national/longterm/jfkjr/stories/jfk071999.htm   (1313 words)
