Remembering Teddy

John F. Kennedy’s call to service in his 1961 presidential inauguration reflected his family’s commitment to making life better for less privileged Americans. It was his youngest brother, Edward M. Kennedy, who carried out that sense of obligation for more than 40 years as a U.S. senator from Massachusetts. Along the way, Ted Kennedy’s many speeches rang with his passion for that mission.
