may not know this, though some may, but I discovered while reading and researching C.S. Lewis that on this day,November 22, 1963
C. S. Lewis passed away,
the same day that John F. Kennedy was assassinated.
I don't believe I even knew who Lewis was when I was in 4th grade, but I distinctly remember the day when my fellow classmates and I heard the sad news that President Kennedy was shot. Now years later, it is C.S. Lewis whose writings have influenced my faith perspective in a fresh way.

Oh wow, I was in 2nd grade then, I do remember getting sent home early that day because of something important happening. And I still recall walking into our kitchen that day and mom was listening to the radio, (we didn't have a tv then )she was crying. And I didn't understand the importance of it all.
