Once, when they asked John what he would do if he went into politics and was elected president, he said, ‘I guess the first thing is call up Uncle Teddy and gloat.’ I loved that. It was so like his father. . Senator Edward Kennedy delivered this eulogy for his nephew on July 23, 1999, at St. Thomas More Church in New York, to a small family gathering of 350 mourners.
