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:
“I admit that the generation which produced Stalin, Auschwitz and Hiroshima will take some beating; but the radical and universal consciousness of the death of God is still ahead of us; perhaps we shall have to colonize the stars before it is finally borne in upon us that God is not out there.”
—R.J. Hollingdale (b. 1930)
