President John F. Kennedy was the 35th president. At the age of 43, he was the youngest man elected president. At the age of 46, he was assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald (who was later killed by Jack Ruby while in police custody). He was survived by his wife, Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, and two children, Caroline Kennedy and John F. Kennedy, Jr., as well as his parents, four sisters, two brothers, and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. Conspiracy theories still surround the assassination and events that followed even to this day.
