April 2 - 5, 1969 Eisenhower Buried


Wednesday, April 2, 1969 President Eisenhower buried today

Cold and cloudy. In late p.m. it cleared. I done up regular work, made a couple pies and tarts. I cooked a chicken stew for supper. I watched the last of the programs of General Eisenhower’s funeral. He was buried at last out in Abilene, Kansas from where he started from. He was (I feel) the greatest man of this country. He liked everyone and everyone liked him. If only there were more men like him, this country needs them and bad. I called at Aunt Ava’s this evening.
