~~~Quote: "Few will have the greatness to bend history itself...But each of us can work to change a small portion of events. It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief, that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal...or acts to improve the lot of others...Or strikes out against injustice...he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope. And crossing each other from a million different centres of energy and daring those ripples, build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance", unquote, Assassinated Democrat US Lawyer and Attorney-General Robert Francis "Bobby" Kennedy, (November 20, 1925 — June 6, 1968)~~~
I
By September 1948, Kennedy studied at the University of Virginia School of Law, (Charlottesville, Virginia); he then met his wife, Ethel Skakel Kennedy, (April 11, 1928-). *Skakel's father was George Skakel, (1892 – October 3, 1955), a Chicago railroad coal engineer. He founded "Great Lakes Carbon Corporation", (SGL Carbon); Skakel's mom was Ann Brannack, (1892-1955). **I won't mention their children here in this book**.
Ethel's parents tragically died in a plane accident as they travelled by air to Union City, Oklahoma, like JFK Junior did in 1999 44 years' later.

Ethel Kennedy attended Greenwich Academy, (Greenwich, Connecticut)-a private Catholic all girls' school); and Convent of the Sacred Heart.
She roomed with US Ambassador to Ireland and diplomat, as well as the co-founder of "The Special Olympics", Jean Ann Kennedy Smith, (February 20, 1928-), with Eunice Mary Kennedy Shriver, DSG (July 10, 1921 – August 11, 2009), the sister of RFK.
