Valarie Ann Hooks died on my first birthday from a post-op acquired pneumonia. She was my half-sister and 16 years older than me.

My mom went crazy with grief and though appears normal to most, she never really recovered. According to the shrinks thats the reason I have abandonement issues. :tongue:

Crap did I kill the thread again? I have a knack for that lately.

May 29 - only the same day, nothing for the exact year (1978).

I got this list from Wikipedia - Who2? only listed four. I just copied the entire list but to be perfectly honest, I've only heard of a few of them.....
