S12 E22 - The War Outside the Windows - The Lisk Family Tragedy

In April 1943, America was at war. Headlines were filled with Allied advances, Nazi atrocities, rationing, rubber shortages, war bonds, casualty lists, and young men being called into service. But inside one Bay City, Michigan home, the pressure of the outside world reportedly became part of a family argument with devastating consequences.

Special thank you to our anonymous listener in Bay City, Michigan, for sending us the original article that led us to this story. Because of you, we were able to look beyond one old headline and bring Vivian, Kathleen, Geraldine, Bernice, Josephine, and Cecil Jr. back into the light with the care they deserved.
