The speaker bought a painting that hung in JFK's living room at a Shriver family charity event. It came with a personal note referencing Steve, and the artist had previously given a work to Eunice Shriver, JFK's sister.
This painting actually came off the living room of John F. Kennedy. This is Anthony Shriver, who is a nephew of John F. Kennedy. He's a good friend of mine. They were doing a charity event in their backyard, a big tented area back there, but for some of the big sponsors, they had a little cocktail inside their house. We went in the house, we're walking around having a drink, and I saw this picture on the wall. I said, "Wow, I love that painting." I said, "You know, let me buy it." And he said, "No, that's not part of the charity auction." I said, "Yeah, but it's so beautiful. I mean, come on." "No, it's my mother's. I can't do it." "No, no, come on. I mean, give me a price. I want to buy it." I'll put the money into the charity. He said, okay. First painting from the artist went to Eunice Shriver, which is JFK's sister. And then he wrote to Steve, you know, you're the best, Anthony Shriver. So it's got a nice little history. It came off of John F. Kennedy's desk.
