NEW YORK (AP) -- Several generations of Robert F. Kennedy's family have gathered for a ceremony renaming New York City's Triborough Bridge in honor of the slain senator and U.S. attorney general.
Kennedy's wife, Ethel, sons Joseph and Robert Jr., and daughter Kerry were joined Wednesday by dignitaries - including former President Bill Clinton - in a Queens park at the foot of the bridge.
Kennedy was assassinated in 1968 while campaigning for the Democratic presidential nomination.
In prepared remarks, Ethel Kennedy said, ``I love that the city he knew and cared about returned his devotion.''
The bridge will be the first major public work dedicated to Kennedy in the state he represented from 1965 to 1968. It is a complex of three spans that connect Manhattan, the Bronx and Queens.
