President William McKinley was assassinated in September 1901 by anarchist Leon Czolgosz.  Originally, it was thought McKinley would survive the gunshot wounds but died six days later.  He was the third of four assassinated U.S. Presidents (Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, Kennedy).  Although deceased, they live on in other aspects of our culture. We have Mount McKinley in Alaska, the highest mountain peak in North America.  Lincoln’s legacy is perpetuated with the help of the Lincoln Memorial, U.S. currency, and a giant face on Mount Rushmore.  There’s the Kennedy Space Center, JFK International Airport, and Kennedy’s image on the U.S. half-dollar.  As for Garfield…  well… your legacy has been trumped by a lethargic tabby cat that eats people food.  Tough break.
