Kennedy's widow after his assassination in 1963 were more than two dozen from Jane Dryden, a dogged and dramatic 11-year-old who churned out a letter a week for six months straight.

But after she whitted down her list of favorites from 3,000 to 240, only five of the 220 or so she was able to track down declined to be included.
