John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Jr. (November 25, 1960 – July 16, 1999), often referred to as John F. Kennedy, Jr., JFK Jr. or John-John, was an American socialite, magazine publisher, lawyer, and pilot. The elder son of U.S. President John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Lee Bouvier Kennedy Onassis, Kennedy was killed in a plane crash along with his wife and sister-in-law on July 16, 1999.
So, let’s take a look and see if we can determine which of JFK Jr.‘s descendants or family authorized his baptism. Because according to church policy, unless a family member authorizes it, a person needs to be dead 95 years before their work is done by non-family. So, was it his parents, who both preceded him in death? Or was it his children, of whom he had none. Or perhaps his wife, who perished in the same accident. No, it must have been his sister, Caroline, who found time out apart from sitting on the boards of a half dozen charities and corporations, and her work as an attorney, not to mention mother and wife, to give her permission to the mormons to save her brother. Yes, that must have been how it happened. Still, someone should document that, or the mormons will just look like opportunists who waited one day less than the standard 1 year before dunking John John.
