At the Door of Memory, Aubrey Rike: A Witness to History and the Assassination of President Kennedy

While in Trauma Room 1, Dallas, Texas, Aubrey Rike found himself at the center of an unparalleled time in history, and in doing so, assumed the unscripted yet essential role of providing selfless and heartfelt assistance to Jacqueline Kennedy.

The emotional incident Aubrey shares is at times heartbreaking, and brings unashamed tears to his eyes as he relates those private moments with Mrs. Kennedy. Now a poignant memory, Aubrey’s experience also reveals some less than admirable dynamics demonstrated as the result of the death of an extraordinary leader.
