ROBERT FRANCIS KENNEDY b. 20 November 1925

“Robert Francis” was a less calculated selection of names than his brothers’. Robert was as common as appellations came then, whereas Francis could have been a memorial to his paternal uncle, who died before his second birthday; to his maternal grandfather, whose middle name was Francis; or to Saint Francis of Assisi, which is the angelic interpretation the family prefers. Like Saint Francis, Robert F. Kennedy was gentle as well as intense, and he, too, found solace in nature and with animals.
