Kennedy, who was assassinated during a presidential campaign, and her mother, Jackie, died of illness in 1994. Only five years later, she lost her brother and sister-in-law to a plane crash. Late last year, tragedy struck once more when she said goodbye to her daughter, Tatiana Celia Kennedy Schlossberg, who revealed the previous year that she had been diagnosed with cancer, per Today. She was 35 years old.
