After RFK's Death
Following her husband's assassination in 1968, Kennedy stated publicly she would never marry again. For a time after RFK's death, she was escorted to dinners, parties and the theater by singer and family friend Andy Williams. After her husband's death, Kennedy continued to live at the family home, Hickory Hill, in McLean, Virginia until December 2009, when it was sold for $8.25 million.

Famous quotes containing the word death:
“You listen to artists fighting with each other, competing to the death like gladiators, in order to see who is going to get into a show, who is going to make it, who isn’t: who is going to get a full-page ad and who is going to get a half-page. Then I think, “Wouldn’t it be wonderful to go off somewhere and just do your work?””
—Howardena Pindell (b. 1943)
