I was never a Jackie Kennedy fan until I watched this video. Some people do suffer profound loss. My ex-mother-in-law , her name was Patricia Jones and she lived in Longview Washington, was one of those. In her life she outlived both of her husbands, two of her four children, and two of her eight grandchildren. Including my middle daughter. She was an amazingly kind, and compassionate woman. Even after I left her son, she was always there for me. She died in November, days before she would have turned 93. I will miss her forever, at least until I am blessed to c her again.

As a child when JFK was assassinated, I wrote a letter to Jackie and she responded with a signed photo of JFK. I saw her as a role model after that and it remains today. The strength she showed after John and Bobby were killed was the way I saw to help me through life. She was a strong woman and I had total respect for her. I hope she is resting in peace today.

Jackie was an accomplished young woman who for her age handled her husband's assassination with grace . She was only 33 years old. She won Americans hearts renovating the White House , tracking down original pieces that belonged to America's home. We were heartbroken for her children, her and ourselves . Watching Jackie raise her children , pursue her career gave many women hope and a role model. She was a strong woman , a wonderful friend and a outstanding mother. History will never forget this gentle soul that lived in our time.

She wasn't all the world was permitted to see. Jackie only shared what she carefully crafted to be her image. In truth she wanted to divorce JfK after losing their first unnamed child. And in 62 had contemplated it as written in her diary and told to close friends. She married for wealth and described herself as a "sad little housewife" the very thing she promised herself she wouldn't be. That's why she worked as an "editer" or "the camera girl.." for one entire day only.

To say that Jackie Kennedy was a very fine person is a big time understatement. After the president's funeral she received letters from all over the country, from people pouring their hearts out of how much grief they felt for her and her husband's death and how sorry they felt for her, that now she's a widow who will raise two small children without their father. Jackie Kennedy wrote back -personally, to every one of those letters she got. The main reason she did it was because she was trying to help each and every person who wrote to her, with their grief he or she was suffering from because of her situation.

That was her biggest aspiration in life, marry someone wealthy. Despite the tragedies she had a great life overall and was well aware of the price that had to be paid to be where she wanted to. Given that lots of money was her goal, it was a huge risk that paid off well for her.

They are judged by how tight a formation they fly, the amt of tumbles the do and how often. And do they know to land in a kit (which is the group they fly in); all together between 9 & 12 mins...the closer to 12 the better! Now when you don't have enough birds that tumble at same time...then you want to watch to find a male and female that could be. mated that tumbles well. Lotsa observing required! When you decide to mate you see if they even like eachother (sometimes they are indifferent)...but pigeons stay together dur child rearing. So the cpl mates,has two babies and the male baby grows to maturity and the female baby too. The male offspring goes with it mother and the female goes w. the father to produce the super characteristic you are looking to get, Then brother and sister have a go to lock in that gene. So knowing this I have my eyes open to human characteristics. Of course it is more difficult to do w. humans cuz we have prohibitions.

This was an interesting perspective of Jackie O’s story, but I agree with others that the story could and should have been focused more on talking more about Jackie and Lee, and it would have been nice to hear more about Lee - yes, she is Jackie’s sister (her legacy as was pointed out)… but the reason we tuned in was to hear more about the two sisters separately and together. Jackie’s story has been told many times - how she married Onassis, etc … I wanted to hear about the sisters’ relationship, etc … about Lee at the White House. And a bit more about Lee after Jackie passed - did Lee have a good relationship with Jackie’s kids? Jackie died before JFK Jr … but how did Lee handle?

I really don't think the rivalry between Jackie and Lee was as intense as the press and others made it out to be.

My mother was impressed by Jacqueline Kennedy and named me after her when I was born in 1960. I never really appreciated my namesake, always judging her because she seemed to accept & condone her husband's womanizing ways. I considered her weak and submissive. But, the more I learn about her, the more I have come to realize her true intelligence. She knew when to remain quiet and stoic, and when to advocate for the people or issues she found important. She was fiercely protective of her children and raised two seemingly humble kids despite the advantages of privilege. Privacy was extremely important to her and she shunned fame during a time when self-promotion seemed commonplace. While tragedies could have easily drowned her, she found ways to persevere. Even in death, she remains iconic and largely thought of in a positive manner. As far as namesakes are concerned, I think I may have hit the jackpot.

You certainly did hit the jackpot. I always wished that my name had been Jacquelene! I was a little girl when Jacqueline was in the White House and she became my role model for the rest of my life. As a matter fact I moved to Newport, Rhode Island. Her mother, Mrs. Hugh D Auchincloss, still lived at Hammersmith Farm which also served as The Summer White House. Apparently the mother and daughter had a great dispute about the sale of the property because Jackie did not want it sold. I had the privilege of meeting people who remembered Jackie. The handsome young John Jr. would come to Newport and spend time at the Windmill on the property with selected friends. From what you have written I see that you give a great honor to Jackie’s name. You have come to understand and know her the way she should be remembered. Jacqueline did so much for so many charities but she wanted no publicity associated with her generosity. As a matter fact, her friend, Gloria Steinem told her that she should let people know that she is doing so much for charities. Steinem felt that it would change people’s negative attitude toward Jackie. Jacqueline said no! 👑 My middle name is Lee and so was Jacquelines so I did get some of it even though I was already born before she was in the White House. I did attend the church where she was married when I lived in Newport.

I remember someone pointing it out to me when I was young, and saying, "That's the house that Jackie Kennedy grew up in." I often rode my bike past it when I was a teenager. It was a very beautiful mansion near the ocean, setback from the street with a huge front lawn with many trees -- very beautifully landscaped, and with many other mansions around it. My friend lived right across the street from Jacki's very eccentric aunt, Edith Bouvier Beale, and her daughter Edie (Jackie's first cousin?) at Grey Gardens, the completely overgrown decaying mansion in another section of East Hampton -- almost right on the ocean . . . the Maysles brothers made a wonderful documentary called, "Gray Gardens." I used to look out my friend's living room window and see Edie in her window sometimes, late at night -- it was very spooky. She may have been watching us because there were no curtains in my friend's living room and we used to sit right by the window. The Beales were shut-ins --completely isolated.

Did the sisters still speak and have a relationship with each other after that marriage? Jackie was selfish. Lee must have been devastated.

Hi 👋 Jeanne, how are you doing?

The novella, "Dolores", written as a magazine article by Jacqueline Susann in 1974 & published as a hardcover in 1976, is an interesting roman à clef about the life of Jacqueline Kennedy just after JFK's assassination and her marriage to Aristotle Onassis. It's an easy and fun read, too.

Jackie was a great fashion icon but I honestly never did see her as any great beauty. What a sad life for Jackie particularly with such a wayward first husband and such traumatic loss of that husband and then on and on the sadness went for the poor woman.

I sent a condolence note to John and Caroline and received a very nice thank you from them

Read several books about Jackie Kennedy. The Onasis marriage was advantageous for both in the short term. Her father left a deep influence and deeper scar.

I was in high school when Oswald was killed on live TV. Even as a 16 year old, I knew Oswald wasn’t JFKs killer! How on earth did armed Ruby managed to get into a precinct filled with cops and kill Oswald in such close range?

They're human beings first, and most born into that "class" are neglected and ignored, shunted around, used as pawns in divorce, etc. Money may provide more options and opportunities, but it most certainly does not guarantee happiness, or even contentment. She suffered a great deal of loss in her life; do you think for one moment that her money shielded her from the pain of miscarriage, a philandering husband, assassinations of her husband and BIL? Why don't you try a little compassion?

@@gibsongirl2100 We’ve all lost people that we loved. I’ve lost more in my lifetime than Jackie ever did, and trust me, no one cared. I am now the mother to my twin brothers little boy… after he lost both of his parents 3 months apart. At 3 years old,he’s been through more than Jackie Kennedy. I have much sympathy for anyone who’s lost their mother or a child, but I don’t feel sorry for the elites who have a soft cushion to fall back on, including maids and chefs… and not have the worry of the world on their shoulders, like we average people do. At least Jackie had all the time in the world to have a mental break down if she needed without having any responsibilities to see to… While the rest of us have to get up and go to work. The day I lost my twin was the same day I became a mother… I had no mother, no sister, no aunt, no grandmother, no dad, nobody to help me. So, no, I don’t feel sorry for Jackie Kennedy

@@Justice4547 You assume a lot about the lives of others without ever being behind closed doors with them. If all this is true, you, above all people, should understand loss, and offer compassion. It costs you nothing at all. I am sorry for all your many losses and hardships. But some things come through loud and clear in your narrative, and that's that you are full of anger, bitterness and resentment for your life and for people who have more material things than you do. I can tell you from personal experience, losing a loved one, or dealing with death or sickness or accidents is not made any better with money. Your resentment of others' lives doesn't do you any good, anyway.

Bitter Betty

No one can ever imagine what it was like for her to experience such a horrific event. No she never got over it. She was functionally emotionally wrecked

I think she transcended the trauma beautifully...after Onassis and the 20 million she received she was free to go to work and not worry about affording a highly extravagant lifestyle. She once said first time you marry for love (and in Jack's case, fame and money, privilege and status), the second for money (hubby was filthy rich), the third for companionship(Maurice and she adored each other 's company and he grew her Onassis settlement into wealth. When she died, she left gifts to those who had been kind to her. She was a true conundrum...loving and solid, introverted, self-centered and generous, superficial and yet exquisitely aware of life's erraticisms. She was a one-off. That family is compelling.

No one is perfect and I have to add my two cents. She was a hypocrite for accepting her husband's behavior while criticizing others for the same. Still, she bore her husband's assassination with strength and I would not have wished those horrible days on anyone.

We all know what Marlyn was ( hot to trot ) JK had the children she enjoyed spending time with them . The assassination was very atrocious my parents collapsed crying on the floor I was five years old then, JK stayed and made sure things were properly done she was almost a skeleton & doctors had to move into the capital the children had nanny's after that.S he didn't want to burden the country and took the offer from Onassis ( at least he knew loneliness too ) but he would take her places and cared if she had things bought her gifts often didn't argue with her when she worked or traveled .

I don't think you can do much when you're married to the President of the United States. Especially in the sixties. Especially when you know better than anyone what being a child of divorce means. She did best with what she had.
