It's very simple, but moving. They really couldn't have chosen a better monument for the Kennedy brothers. When I went there, it was a Memorial Day weekend and officials came to move the crowd away from the grave. Caroline Kennedy had come to visit. She crossed herself and knelt there briefly and then she left. That really made the visit a more realistic experience. People often forget that it wasn't just a big national event. There were people who lost family members. Caroline lost her father; she didn't have him for long.
