With 35 years spent in the funeral business, I penned my memoir book Undertakings of an Undertaker in 2015, and a new fiction short story book Tales Unleashed in 2019. I'm intrigued by 'unusual' type stories and will be presenting some here for you..please stop in often!

Remembering a dark day..
Does not seem possible that 54 years has passed since the day
John F. Kennedy was killed in Dallas. As an 8th grader sitting
in a study hall in the school library, I was stunned like everyone
else when the announcement came over the loud speaker that
the president had been shot during a motorcade.
And almost six decades later.... the questions continue to
linger. Did Oswald act alone? Were there other shooters involved?
Was it a Cuban plot via Russia to eliminate Kennedy?
After so many investigations and new theories that have come
forward....the answer(s) are still elusive.
Oswald was even exhumated a few years ago to re-examine the
body....not sure what they were looking for... just making sure
it was definitely him in that grave I guess.
There were questions regarding Kennedy's autopsy...movement
of the body from place to place and so on. More questions
than explanations. I think that Oswald probably acted alone,
but you can probably find another 100 conclusions on the
web contrary to that. So I guess maybe we will never know
for certain what happened on that November 22nd. It is part
of history....and it feels weird just knowing I was on the planet
when it happened.
