There is nothing like the loss of a mother, especially your mother. I am sorry.

Thank you for all that you are doing for our country.

What a legacy she leaves behind and what a tribute by her son RFK jr.

Beautiful eulogy . Thanks to the authors .

Im Bobby’s age but I never heard the story of how Ethel K embraced Governor Wallace , even after his fierce opposition to Civil Rights. Wallace’s positive reaction just goes to show what can be achieved if we take that road of reaching out in peace . I can now see where Bobby may have gotten , at least in part , his tolerance , compassion, and understanding nature . Thank you Mama ! for molding the man we luckily have on our side right now.

So here’s to you Ethel . An intelligent and strong woman and A definite role model and inspiration to us all. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💐🌹🌺🌻🌼🪷🌞🌈🌅🏞🌠

Warm condolences to the entire Kennedy family whom I imagine will continue to feel Ethyl's energy and support from the other side. Such a remarkable woman and matriarch!

Kennedy's book "American Values" is in part a tribute to his mother, an extraordinarily accomplished woman. Not surprising she would be the mother of a son who by age 70 knows everyone, been everywhere, and done everything (damn near). A beautiful tribute to her. Do you know anyone who grew up in a household with six siblings and sixteen dogs, mostly Irish Settlers, all named Rusty and they slept in the kids beds? That's her, and it's part of what makes it natural she would have a son who would receive a gift of a pair of komodo dragons form Sukarno, the first President of Indonesia.

I recommend the book. It's full of stuff like that. Not at all a hash of political platitudes as the title suggests.
