Clint Hill

On July 5th, I received an exciting piece of mail from the United States. It was from Clint Hill who was the Secret Service agent who jumped on the back of the limousine in which President John F. Kennedy was shot in Dallas, Texas, on November 22 1963. He is the last surviving person who was in the car. When I opened the letter, there was an autographed picture. I was gobsmacked and so happy. I wrote to him in May, telling him how much I enjoyed reading his autobiography, which was called 'Me and Mrs Kennedy'. I have had the photo laminated.

My Grandparents Place.

I have wonderful memories of this house. It's so close to town, and I remember playing soccer and cricket on the grass when I was seven ...
