The story of great aunt Bertie's murder can be found at the link provided here. I strongly suggest you read that. It's a terrible Jenks family tragedy and the story of a shameful family secret. Again, the story as I know it is at a prior post of this website.
I considered writing a fictionalized short novel about Aunt Bertie in 1913-14 Richmond, Virginia, but frankly, it's hard enough just occasionally thinking about what happened to her and the kids. I don't want to live 6 months to a year with this horror as I write the book. I don't think I could emotionally weather it. I'm tough but I'm not that tough.
Honestly, the truth is story enough.
Bertie, wherever you are, I hope your soul rests in peace. I'm so sorry what our family did and didn't do for you, and for Jimmy and Gracie. Shameful
