Do you remember what you were doing the moment you found out JFK was assassinated?

56 years ago today...November 22, 1963. I was sitting in my first grade classroom waiting for the teacher to get back from being called to the office. She came back & said she had something to tell us. Afterwards we all sat and cried till the bell rang to go home.

Living DownUnda, I heard it on the news the next morning, our time, a few hours after the event. It freaked me out because our family was discussing US presidents being assassinated the night before, about 5 hours before the event. The conversation was in general, not specific to JFK.
