This interview was particularly meaningful to me since Michael Okon is my uncle. Ironically, I did not know he saw the Kennedy motorcade on November 22, 1963, until at least two years into my employment at The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza. It then took more than a year to convince him to participate in this archival project. - Stephen Fagin, Associate Curator
