here in Uk, it was so sad as well. I was in my 20's so of course he was to myself and friends, not only your president, but a very handsome man. Years later, in fact 5 weeks after 9/11, myself and three friends went on a long planned trip to Washington DC, nothing was going to stop me going, and while there we visited his memorial in Arlington. I remember being surprised when I realised that he was older than my mother. I had always still thought of him as a young and handsome man. Very very sad, so tragic.
