Synopsis

The Author
The Meyer family of Beaver Dam Wisconsin were not your run of the mill group of kin folk. Being the daughter of the infamous Ruth and Russell Meyer back in the 60’s was a roller coaster of fun times and tragic events. As children, we had the best times with dad. Fishing, skating, him bringing home a monkey, wrestling a bear, and finding humor in everyday functions such as farting. I have fond memories of him. My dad was a hilarious and lovable character. But when he was drinking, he became extremely violent.
The domino effect of having abusive, alcoholic parents and the night all hell broke loose does not excuse the bad behavior me and my siblings displayed throughout our lives. It simply gives you a better understanding of the insanity brought on by substance abuse. The disease of addiction spread its net of destruction over my life, my siblings, my husbands, my parents and my oldest boy.
This book contains the stories of my insane, wonderful, tragic, and unbelievable life. Written for the benefit of all the Meyer descendants, it clears many of the misconceptions of what really went down in that house of madness all those years ago. The good, the bad, and the murder that shook Dodge County Wisconsin on May 10, 1970. At sixty-eight years old, I consider myself a lucky person to have come through all of it in good shape. Many in my circle were not so fortunate.
