Thought I read someplace that one of Caroline's daughters stuck her
tongue out at photographers recently?

TO MY SISTER I LEAVE DAD'S OLD ROCKING CHAIR

JFK Jnr has left his most treasured possessions to his sister Caroline
and her three young children.

Full details of his will have not yet been disclosed, but his £60million
fortune will remain within the family.

And his grieving sister is to pass on a number of cherished belongings
to her children Jack, six, Rose, 11, and Tatiana, nine, as mementos of
their uncle - including a rocking chair once owned by their grandfather,
President Kennedy, in the White House.

Among other treasures are:

-A tie-pin inscribed "PT-109," a gold Cartier watch, and a silver money
clip that belonged to the assassinated president.

-A 1965 Cecil Beaton oil painting of John and Caroline as youngsters.
The portrait hung in their mother Jackie Onassis' New York apartment
until her death of cancer five years ago.

-Roman artefacts and a small Greek sculpture collected by JFK before he
was shot.

-A wooden paddle that JFK Jnr made at Brown University and his famous
black beret.

-JFK Jnr's music collection, including albums by Bob Marley and the
Grateful Dead.

-Sports equipment, including a bicycle and weights used by the magazine
publisher to keep in shape.

JFK Jnr died at the controls of his private plane last month with wife
Carolyn and her sister, Lauren, while flying to Hyannis Port for cousin
Rory Kennedy's wedding.

Jackie Onassis's cousin, James Auchincloss, who often baby-sat John and
Caroline when they were children, said: "John took an immense interest
in Caroline's children and was proud of how she and her husband, Ed
Schlossberg, were raising them.

"I know they will be inspired throughout their lives by the memory of
their favourite uncle - and will follow his path of good works.

JFK Jnr also helped instil in the children his interest in helping the
sick and the poor. "John was so impressed with these kids because of

their caring natures," said Schloss-berg. "They are really well-behaved,
decent children."

"I think John and the rest of the family always felt the future was in
safe hands with Caroline's kids."

Meanwhile, JFK Jnr's faithful dog, Friday, has been given a new home -
by Julia Roberts' old flame, former ice hockey star and JFK Jnr's friend
and personal trainer Pat Manocchia.

Friday was treated almost like a child by the couple, and friends of the
couple said he had been "whining and whimpering" since the crash.

yeah, i read that too. But she is young and those "people" (the photographers)
are sick and dont deserve to even be treated like human beings.

Yes, it was Rose, the oldest. I saw the pic. Do you consider sticking your
tongue out at someone a sign of bad upbringing?
