RFK visited Terre Haute on April 3 and May 3 of 1968. I have heard local political leaders state that he returned because man Indiana State University students were away on spring break at the time of his first visit.

At the time of his second visit, I was parking cars for my uncle after school on a lot he owned in the heart of the city. I did so even though I didn't yet have a driver's license.

On the 3rd of May that year my uncle came to the lot and informed me we would be closing early. A flat bed truck was hauled in across the back of the lot. A crowd began to gather. Bobby and his aids made their way from the Terre Haute House to the truck bed that would serve as his stage.

My uncle had placed me right at the stair, allowing me to be there to shake his hand just before he ascended the stairs to speak.
