Kennedy on the 50th anniversary of his assassination. Congresswoman Kaptur and State Rep. Mike Foley laid a wreath at the Irish Cultural Gardens to pay tribute to the legacy of America's 35th president. They were joined by Cleveland City Council President Martin Sweeney, incoming president Kevin Kelley, and Councilman Martin Keane. President Kennedy inspired us all to careers in public service, said Congresswoman Kaptur. He will be remembered for his famous statement: Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country. Those words continue to inspire us. Council President Sweeney said President Kennedy inspired millions of Irish-Americans. I didn't see my dad cry very often, but he cried that day when the President was killed in November 1963. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
