Same here same age... I remember where I was, by the staircase at our home in Clarence. Had not see my Mom cry like that ever so I stayed mellow, didn't really understand why but instinct told me to just play with toys, stuff like that. Keep quiet.
Cronkite headed the news, I do remember that though... love that guy at that age because I used to sit on my Dads lap and watch the news with him.
