Kennedy Tribute Site Launched

August 26, 2009

An Internet tribute to Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., launched Wednesday hours after the legendary lawmaker's death at age 77 on Tuesday night. TedKennedy.org allows the public to share thoughts and memories about the senator who had been battling brain cancer since a May 2008 diagnosis. A schedule of memorial events and media logistics will be released as soon as they are available on the site. In the meantime, tribute areas honoring Kennedy are being set up at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum in Boston, the JFK Museum in Hyannis, Mass. and Kennedy's Washington Office in the Russell Senate Building in Washington. Read complete Kennedy coverage at NationalJournal.com and CongressDaily.com.
