 Cindy, (or Elkins, or anyone else who remembers)

As I am also an ancient one, and the memory seems to be the first to  
go, was George Wallace actually assassinated?  I thought he was shot 
and remained paralyzed?  Or am I confusing him with someone else?
I know President Reagan was shot, but luckily, no serious outcome.
I would swear that I have seen pictures of George Wallace in a wheel 
chair.  Please correct  me if I'm wrong.  I'm realy just curious.
