"If you could make a wish, what would be your (Kennedy's) wish?"
While still in the White House, Jacqueline asked her husband, President Kennedy.
"Hopefully, I'll have more good times."
This is the answer that Kennedy himself said.
Unfortunately, such a wish is not easy to achieve, especially for Kennedy, who is president.
On November 22, 1963, Jacqueline accompanied Kennedy to rally votes for the presidency.
As their car walked to Dealey Square in Dallas, Texas, tragedy struck: three gunshots rang out and Kennedy's body fell into Jacqueline's arms.
"Jack's happiest years could have begun after he left the White House", and jacqueline couldn't hide her sadness every time she thought about the lives of two people in the White House.
Because she always remembers that her husband's wish was to have more good times.
The 46-year-old Kennedy returned to Air Force Base in Washington on Air Force One on the afternoon of his assassination, and the entire American people remember the moment first lady Jacqueline stepped off the plane wearing a dress stained red by the president's blood.
The so-called outrage was no more than that, and when the elegant First Lady appeared in front of everyone in a downcast image, it deeply stimulated the vast number of Americans, who took to the streets, raised their fists, and demanded that the assassins be brought to justice.
However, there was no way to get Kennedy back. His body was put into a coffin, receiving wave after wave of people who came to mourn.
Jacqueline personally operated the entire funeral for her husband, she was sad and calm, she was clearly silent, but her body was full of silent cries.
When Kennedy's coffin was lifted to be sent to St. Matthews, Jacqueline kissed her husband goodbye with her 6-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son.
Jacqueline knelt in front of the coffin and kissed her husband's coffin with her mouth, her tears staining the coffin like an unwilling retention.
The little daughter learned from her mother and kissed her father's coffin hard.
Kennedy's youngest son stood up, at his mother's prompting, behind his father's coffin, and gave his father a final salute.
It was enough to sting the American people, and most people saw tears in their eyes.
Many people bid farewell to Kennedy, and when they received the news of opening to the outside world, they rushed from all over the world, and it is said that in just one day, more than 250,000 people came to mourn.
Such a large difference team could not hide Jacqueline's sadness at all.
The children were so young that they no longer had their fathers to accompany them. But the saddest thing is that the death of her husband is likely to become a suspense case that will never have an answer.
According to the regulations, Kennedy's body was sent to Ellington National Cemetery.
This is a special cemetery built by the U.S. government for those soldiers and medal recipients who died because of the country, and it symbolizes honor and status.
Kennedy's assassination as president apparently paid for the country's life.
In addition, during Kennedy's tenure, he was very popular with the people. In view of these aspects, it was eventually allowed to be buried here.
Bid farewell to Kennedy with a sad heart and watch his body being sent to the tomb.
As the wife of the deceased, Jacqueline personally lit the "eternal fire" in front of the curtain for her husband.
The farewell party finished the final greeting and then left silently. Only Jacqueline was left kneeling in front of the tomb, she had no tears at this time, but she refused to leave.
After the funeral, Jacqueline returned to New York with her two children.
Although she has had many scandals on her, she has even been rejected by the American people because of her marriage to Onassis.
But she remained Jacqueline Kennedy until her death, when she was sent back to Kennedy.
This result is very in line with the way she knelt in front of Kennedy's tomb and refused to leave, like putting her love in her heart and having to run for her life.
In fact, looking at Kennedy's cemetery today, it is a very simple, not large enough place, the whole cemetery is about 60 square meters.
It was probably not what Jacqueline liked, but it ultimately made her a lifelong identity: the former first lady of the United States.
Of course, the most gratifying thing is that this place became a place where Kennedy met with Jacqueline and their children.
Jacqueline told her two underage children that her father had gone to heaven to accompany your brother, and I had stayed with you.
Indeed, Kennedy's grave is on the left side of the cemetery, on the right is the grave of his wife Jacqueline, and on the left and right there is a cemetery on the outside, which is the graveyard of their son Patrick Kennedy, who died three days after his birth, and their daughter who miscarried before birth. Because the daughter was not born and did not take a name, the tombstone reads Teacher.
The entire cemetery is surrounded by stone slabs covered with irregular granite that the Kennedy family collected from their hometown more than 150 years ago.
Perhaps this also represents a kind of nostalgia, their family is destined not to fall back to the roots, but buried with the stones of their hometown, it means to return to their hometown.
In a number of stone crevices, a lot of four-leaf clover, as well as cow's hair grass, were planted.
But the most conspicuous thing in this cemetery is the "Eternal Fire", which is controlled by a natural gas and air proportional device, so that the color and shape of the flame remain unchanged.
The fire was lit in 1963, and now more than 50 years later, it has never been extinguished.
It was a fire of faith, but also a fire of thought, and when Jacqueline lit it, she probably didn't think it would happen, and she lit the fire with her own hands, and it was still burning until she was buried.
The most lamentable thing is that the son Jacqueline has cultivated with all her strength, the son kennedy jr. who has all her hopes, has left this world not long after her death.
Kennedy Jr.'s body was salvaged on the 5th day after the plane crash, and a sea burial was arranged, returning to the sea forever.
On the other side of the Kennedy family's cemetery is the grave of his brother Robert.
After the death of his brother, Robert became the future president of the American people. But no one expected that just five years later, he would repeat his brother's old mistakes and write a tragic scene in the history of the Kennedy family again.
In a sense, it has become the graveyard of the Kennedy family, but it is something they are reluctant to do, because since Kennedy became president, the whole family has fallen into a curse.
As the American media joked:
"As a member of the Kennedy family, you don't want to be able to lie in bed and die quietly."
However, it is worth mentioning that Jacqueline was very intelligent, and after her husband was assassinated, she refused to change her blood-stained coat in order to remind the American people that Kennedy must be returned to the truth.
At the time, too many people praised Jacqueline for her wisdom, but the result was still the opposite.
Who killed Kennedy, and who created the Kennedy family curse, there was no answer in the past, and there is still no answer today, which will probably become a mystery that has always plagued the world.
