Nota curatorial:

This ornate floral arrangement, which included a flower cross and small "eternal flame," was placed in Dealey Plaza by local real estate developer Tom Russell. Because Russell prominently put the name of his corporation on the arrangement, it was considered to be advertising by the City of Dallas Park Department. After being asked to remove the tribute from Dealey Plaza, Russell placed it in front of his home and left it standing for a full year. Mr. Russell donated photographs of the floral display and recorded an oral history with the Museum in 2004. - Stephen Fagin, Curator

La Plaza Dealey se transformó en un santuario conmemorativo durante el fin de semana del asesinato, cuando los dolientes dejaron coronas, arreglos florales y tarjetas en memoria del Presidente Kennedy. Un visitante de la plaza, George Reid, recordó en su historia oral del Museo: "La gente empezaba a dejar cosas y, el domingo por la mañana, había bastantes cosas allí, bastantes flores..... La gente bajaba y se quedaba llorando. La gente lloraba y se hablaba, se abrazaba, ya sabes. Fue un día muy emotivo". - Stephen Fagin, Conservador

Las fotografías donadas por Robert Russell fueron adquiridas en una venta de garaje. Se desconoce el fotógrafo, aunque los detalles de las imágenes, incluida la barrera de cuerda, sugieren que fueron tomadas el lunes 25 de noviembre de 1963. - Gary Mack, Conservador (2000 - 2015)
