Trying to remember where her older brothers went …I think it may have been an all boys academy in the late 50s/early-mid 60s
You were close to being a Wisconsinite!

My parents grew up on the south side, attended CVS. After my dad went to college, my parents were married and Dad was in the service, they returned to the south suburbs. I was born In Blue Island, lived in Lindenhurst, IL for a few years, but I did 1st through 12th grade in Byron.
Moved to Effingham after undergrad at UI, and I've been in the area for longer than anywhere else in my life.
My parents still live in Byron.

Dad was 2 years younger. Said Butkus was a better fullback than linebacker. A mean SOB in HS. Recalls Butkus dragging about the entire opponent across the goal line at Solder Filed to win the city championship when they were in school.
