It's a black stain for Dallas and always has been but it is kind of cool this happened in my hometown and that it was a part of history.

John F. Kennedy in my Hometown
I've often viewed this photo at the old diner off Main Street in Grand Prairie, Texas.........and have loved it. This is a photograph of John F. Kennedy shaking hands with Grand Prairie residents on Main Street. Unfortunately, this photo was taken before he was gunned down in Dallas.

I too am from Grand Prairie, and I absolutely love this picture. I just discovered it today in the old Millar Drug Store, which is now an Italian restaurant. I couldn't stop staring at it, and wondered what it would have been like to have witnessed JFK on Main Street in little ol' Grand Prairie.
FYI Millar Drug store is to the right, next to the Texas State Optical.
