The White House was like a second home to me from "summary" of Mrs. Kennedy and Me by Clint Hill,Lisa McCubbin Hill
I had spent so much time at the White House that it felt like a second home to me. From the moment I first set foot in that historic building, I was captivated by its grandeur and history. I had the privilege of serving as a Secret Service agent for the First Lady, Mrs. Kennedy, and I quickly became familiar with every nook and cranny of the White House. As I walked through the halls, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the thought of all the important events that had taken place within those walls. From state dinners to political meetings, the White House was a hub of activity and power. I was honored to be a part of it all, even if my role was to simply stand in the background and ensure the safety of the First Lady. Mrs. Kennedy made the White House feel like a warm and welcoming place. She had a way of making everyone feel at ease, no matter their background or station in life. I watched as she greeted guests with a genuine smile and a kind word, always putting them at ease with her grace and charm. Despite the constant hustle and bustle of life at the White House, there were moments of quiet reflection that I cherished. I would often find myself standing in the Rose Garden, admiring the beauty of the flowers and the peacefulness of the surroundings. It was in those moments that I truly felt at home in the White House. Even as I traveled with the First Lady to various events and functions, my thoughts would always drift back to the White House. It was where I felt most comfortable, where I felt like I belonged. The history and tradition of the place were ingrained in my soul, and I knew that no matter where life took me, a piece of my heart would always remain within those hallowed walls.
