"I suppose I wasn't much fun to be with [Billy was recovering from cancer], but that didn't matter to John.

'Hey, oddball, you want to play some Frisbee?'

I'd give him a look, and come back with, 'That's not funny. Don't you realize I could have died?'

'Yeah, but you didn't. Come on. Let's go.'

That was very Kennedy: You survived by counting your blessings, which means that you soldier on. 'We have to soldier on" -- that was a special phrase to Jackie and her children. As a survivor, too, I now had a better sense of what they felt, how important it is to count one's blessings."
--William Noonan, from his memoir, "Forever Young"

(L-R: Billy Noonan; John's friend from Brown Univ.; John's girlfriend, Sally Munroe, 1982)

"And so we are not suing about the outcome of the election. We're not suing to put someone in office. We're suing to remove the security breach. And the security breach is every single member of Congress that refused to their job and defend this country." ~Loy Brunson
