you to know the truth? Maybe from a police report, or newspaper archives?

Just this week I received a newspaper article notification from Ancestry.com ( I’m the family genealogist). It was regarding a car accident I was in with my Grandma and Uncle. He was the driver and 26 at the time (1961). I was 9 years old and spent 10 days in the hospital. Grandma and my Uncle spent three weeks there. Somehow, reading about the accident brought back the memory and a sense of peace. Wishing you the same .
