Robert Kennedy Funeral- Eulogy delivered by Senator Edward Kennedy

Rest in peace teddy.

I have RFK's funeral on vinyl (Andy Williams version of Ava Maria is the best i have ever heard other than Irene Molloy at my grandmother catherine's funeral) teddy's eulogy is so powerful. he was offered RFK's nomination for president and declined. he had his faults yet teddy was in my opinion the best senator and helped our nation in that role in ways we truly needed and continue to need (ie: health care bill)
