Can't remember. But Princess Diana's funeral was the same day as my wedding. My first son was born when JFK JR.'s plane went down. My other son was born on Pearl Harbor Day. I miscarried a baby that was due on 9-11. Oh the tragedy!!! But my daghter was born Oct 28 2000 and nothing was really happening then.
