On the upcoming anniversary of the Robbins/Sarandon rupture:
Yes, the nation mourned, indeed. It was so devastating, that I can imagine all of us remembering exactly where we were…when we first heard the news.
I was at the pharmacy getting a prescription refilled. I remember… I was so stressed out: the generic brand was cheaper, but would it stop recurrences?
How petty were my concerns! My own worries quickly washed away when my roommate Scott texted me the news: Tim and Susan…it’s over. Also: Pick up some Magnum Twisters.
And, yes, I mourned.
I imagined this is how my parents felt, back on November 22, 1963.
But, like always, our country, and our people, soldiered on. We absorbed the shock, we mourned, but we moved on.
But make no mistake…we…will…never…forget.
