Near the back of the St. Francis Xavier cemetery in Centerville, Mass., are the resting places of Eunice and Sargent Shriver.
Eunice Kennedy Shriver made it all the way to 88, productive and sharp till the end.
Eunice, who died in August 2009, a year and half before her husband, was in the same mold—and fiercely supportive of her children.
As time passes, many who will never know their names will owe their dignity and place in life to Sarge and Eunice.
A servant said Eunice had told them to just take anything handy.
Eunice presented the distinguished-looking gentleman to me as a friend of hers—Mr. Philip Dunboyne.
The presence of this child looked therefore to be an impeachment of the integrity of Mr. Volrees and of Eunice.
These are Virginia and Eunice Johnson, daughters of the ex-sheriff, and they are aged respectively six and three years.
I say, she has done it, after Eunice has saved me—done it, when Eunice was ready to be my wife.
"I'll own I'm a snob," said Eunice, with maddening meekness.
