Today is the 50th anniversary of two of my family members. Boots and Bill. Boots, whose real name is Marilyn married Bill and together they birthed two daughters, Kim and Kristen.

Oct 17th 1985 was a weird day for me. I woke up at 6 am and thought to myself "I am not going to school today." No reason, I just thought I wasn't going. I had spoken to my grandfather late the night before to ask him how my Uncle Red was doing. Poppy informed me that Uncle Red had passed away. About 7 am our phone starts ringing.
