Ooh, thanks for posting! I’m a long time follower of the Kennedy family and it was Rory Kennedy where I first heard the name ‘Rory’ – long before her time. The Kennedy’s have a history of choosing “current” and “modern” names (i.e. Noah for a girl), mixed with the traditional. Zachary’s a bit more common, but very cute nonetheless – congrats to the both of them!

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn’t that also the anniversary of the death of John Jr. and his wife Caroline (who were on their way to Rory’s wedding)? A blessed event, tinged with some sadness.

Yes that is also the anniversary of the death of John Jr. and his wife Caroline (who were on their way to Rory’s wedding)? The date of death was 16th. July 1999.
