It is November 22. This was the defining day of my childhood. I was in sixth grade in a Catholic School. I remember the loudspeaker crackling in our room and the principal coming on(and principals never interrupted class). I remember shock, tears. I remember that school let out early and that my mom came to pick us up in the rain. As a nation, nothing is more horrific than losing the president to mindless violence.It didnt matter whether people had voted for him or liked him. This was a bullet to the heart of the nation. I pray with all my heart that that was the last time well ever know that feeling of sudden, gut-dropping, heart-crushing loss.
