June 6, 2008: Time it Was, Long Ago, Preserve Your Memories

“Time it was
And what a time it was
It was…
A time of innocence
A time of confidences.
Long ago…it must be…
I have a photograph.
Preserve your memories;
They’re all that’s left you. –Paul Simon, from the album “Bookends” (1)

On this date forty years ago, Robert F. Kennedy died in Los Angeles. He was 42.
