Biden Memorializes Ethel Kennedy in Eulogy
President Biden on Wednesday delivered a eulogy for Ethel Kennedy, the widow of Senator Robert F. Kennedy and mother of the former presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Ethel was always there for so many people, and she played an essential role in my life as well. Maybe a little different than with others. She was there as soon as I entered political office in 1972 as a 29-year-old kid before I got sworn in. I was in her brother-in-law’s office, Teddy’s office, hiring staff. I was only 29. You had to be 30 years old to be sworn in. And I wasn’t 30 yet. And I got a phone call from the fire department by my house saying been an accident, tractor trailer broadsided my wife’s automobile, Christmas shopping, the Christmas tree on top, December 18, and killed my wife and killed my daughter, and my boys weren’t expected to live. When I lost my family, and she was there.
