What do you remember about the funerals of Truman, Eisenhower or Johnson? I remember Truman's being on TV, but little else. I recall Nixon sounding lots better in his eulogies than I remembered as well.

At least the NYSE has a tradition of closing:
On April 27, 1994, the exchange closed for Nixon's funeral. Similarly, the NYSE closed on Dec. 28, 1972 for the funeral of former President Harry Truman and less than a month later on Jan. 25, 1973 for the funeral of former President Lyndon Johnson. The exchange was closed on March 31, 1969 for the funeral of former President Dwight D. Eisenhower.
