How many U.S. presidents have died in your lifetime?

[NightTrain]

I was born in 1966, which makes five presidents for me:

Eisenhower (1969)
Truman (1972)
Johnson (1973)
Nixon (1994)
Reagan (2004)

At least, those are the only ones of which I'm aware!

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

1. Let's see...

Kennedy - 1963 (I was just one year old)
Eisenhower - 1969
Truman - 1972
Johnson - 1973
Nixon - 1994
Reagan - 2004

[Ediacara]

2. Just Nixon and Reagan

[Leprechan29]

10. Ditto

[Lucky Luciano]

3. Johnson died one week before I was born!

So that leaves just Nixon and Reagan.

[ronnykmarshall]

4. I was born in 1961

So that would be:

Kennedy
Hoover
Eisenhower
Johnson
Truman
Nixon
Reagan

[SarahB]

5. All the same

except Ike.

[Cooley Hurd]

7. never mind...

I'm a :dunce: tonight... (I thought you were replying to the previous post and, well... I'm a :dunce:)

[Cooley Hurd]

6. Same as you, but born in '65...

...if I were born a year earlier, I could've added Hoover to my list.

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

8. Thanks - I forgot about Hoover

Oops! Must be the Alzheimer's setting in!

[Qanisqineq]

9. two (possibly three) depending on when in 1973

Johnson died.

[NightTrain]

11. LBJ died at the beginning of 1973.

Some time in January, IIRC.

[Qanisqineq]

25. oh, ok... then just 2

I was born in November.

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

12. LBJ died on January 22, 1973

The same day as Roe v. Wade came down.

[Sporadicus]

13. I Was Born in 1955

Add Kennedy (1963) and Hoover (1964) to my list.

[Hepburn]

14. LOL....do I feel old!!

Wow...........Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Reagan. FDR died right before I was born. Oooooops, add Hooever, too!

[NightTrain]

15. Look at it this way: you were lucky enough to experience the '60s!

Wish I could say that. And welcome to DU! :hi:

[Hepburn]

29. Hey, thanks for the welcome....

....now IF I could REMEMBER living the 60's.......:evilgrin:

[NNadir]

16. Truman, Kennedy, Hoover, Eisenhower, Johnson, Nixon, and now, the national

houseplant.

Actually my theory on the houseplant is that it's been frozen for some years so that it could be thawed when needed. I expected they'd hold out to October, but I think they're getting desparate.

Maybe they'll knock off senior in October.

[Sporadicus]

17. Don't Forget Hoover, Who Lived Until 1964

Pretty remarkable, really. Unlike Reagan, Hoover remained active until his death at age 90; he was working on a book at the time.

[JitterbugPerfume]

18. all of them

who have died since FDR

[Carolina]

19. Seven

Kennedy (1963)
Hoover (1964)
Eisenhower (1969)
Truman (1972)
Johnson (1973)
Nixon (1994)
Reagan (2004)

[name not needed]

20. I was born in 1988

so 2.

[St. Jarvitude]

21. Nixon & Reagan

I was born in '88, so I only have vague recollections of Nixon's death.

[drumwolf]

22. The only presidents' deaths I remember are Nixon and Reagan

The last prez to die before Nixon was LBJ, and I was three years old at the time.

[supernova]

23. I'll add JFK to NightTrain's list

I was only a 1 1/2 years old, so I don't remember it. Bust still.

I didn't realize Eisenhower and Truman had lived so long. LBJ's is the first presidential death I was aware of. Same year as Watergate.

[Bertha Venation]

24. 7: JFK was the first. I remember Truman's death, too. I was 9. Weird.

n/t

[boobooday]

26. Everyone on your list

And I guess I would have to add JFK, who was assassinated when I was 2 months old.

[supernova]

30. Hoover died in 1964?

Gotta add that one too.

[UrbScotty]

28. Nixon and Reagan

Vice Presidents:

Nixon (1994)
Agnew (1996)

First Ladies:

Jackie Kennedy (1993)
Pat Nixon (1993)

Notice how just two Presidents have died in the last eleven years? From 1963 to 1973, though, five Presidents died.

[flamingyouth]

31. All of those

I was born in 1968. I only remember Nixon and Reagan though. I was too young for the others.

[Spirochete]

32. Seven

Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Reagan

On Edit: Doh! Forgot Hoover

[GoddessOfGuinness]

33. JFK is the first I remember...

JFK 63
Hoover 64
Eisenhower 69
Truman 72
Johnson 73
Nixon 94
Reagan 04

Did any others die between 1958 and 1963?

[playahata1]

34. Your five are my five.

I was born in 1967.

[Throckmorton]

35. Add JFK and Hoover for me.

JFK 1963, Herbert Hoover 1964.

I was born in 1962.

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

36. Those 5 plus Kennedy and Hoover

FDR was POTUS for so long, it was quite a gap in there.

[AlFrankenFan]

37. Two

Nixon and Reagan. Yeah I know I'm too young.
