OMAHA, Neb. - s4story -- Award-winning songwriter, Karen Sokolof Javitch, commemorates the 20th anniversary of the passing of John F. Kennedy Jr. with an original song.

"Once Upon a Time" pays a touching tribute to the life of a prince whose life was cut short by a terrible tragedy on July 16, 1999.

"We were all heartbroken when JFK Jr. tragically died in a plane crash 20 years ago," says Javitch. "He was the future of our country and he was taken from us in such a senseless manner.  I had to write a song for him because he meant so much to all of us. 'We will always miss you and your possibilities, John'. Rest In peace."
