DescriptionOriginal 35mm black and white negative taken by Dallas Times Herald staff photographer John Mazziotta. This image shows Reverend James N. Thompson leaving Parkland Hospital on November 22, 1963. Father Thompson accompanied the Reverend Oscar Huber, both from Holy Trinity Catholic Church, to the hospital, and offered comfort and condolences to Mrs. Kennedy in the emergency room. The images on this negative strip were taken by Dallas Times Herald staff photographer John Mazziotta at Parkland Hospital that day. There were two Dallas Times Herald photographers at Parkland: Eamon Kennedy and John Mazziotta. Bob Jackson, another photographer who was at Parkland earlier, was not at the hospital when the Johnsons left, as is pictured in the last frame on the strip.
