Kennedy. And we all remember exactly what we were doing the day he was shot. There have been theories about who was responsible, how long had it been planned, who really tried to warn him and even after all these years, are we even closer to the truth? In Michael Marcades book about his mother Rose Cherami: Gathering Fallen Petals, we read that she knew it was planned and when it was going to go down and how she tried to warn people about the upcoming assassination. Because of her tragic life in and out of prison, mental hospitals and it being centered around alcohol, drugs, mafia bosses, prostitution and unrest, no one took her seriously. In this book, which I couldn't put down, I was saddened by her life of constant disturbance, but saw her tenacity to continue on with her life as hard as it was. Her story is one of love for her son and her protection of him. I would often think of her son Michael and how hard it was to write such a book about his mother's life, but I want to thank him for giving us a glimpse of how a life of great sorrow can be used today to show us a bit of history that may not have ever been told.
