Thanksgiving - A happy time, and a melancholy anniversary
The crisp, short days and the multicolored leaves fluttering down mark a time of year that for me always means two things, one happy, one sad. The happy one is our family’s annual Thanksgiving dinner, for 19 this year. The sad one, the anniversary of John F.

As a young Associated Press reporter, I helped write about some of that weekend's shocking events.

Johnson's swearing in on Air Force One.
