8. I remember when that happened

I was on a training detail in another branch at my office and one of the guys came running over to mention that he had just heard about the crash on the radio (especially since the crash was right outside of Philly). It was definitely a shock!

That was when then-Gov. Bob Casey appointed former JFK staffer Harris Wofford to fill the slot until the special election to serve out the remainder of the term, and Wofford won. However when the term ended and the seat came up a few years later, Wofford lost to Frothy and it was downhill after that until Casey Jr. ran and kicked Frothy to the curb by over 17%.

Now McCormick has that seat.

Heinz's widow Teresa ended up marrying John Kerry.
