As I was looking at the picture of the twins, it came to mind that I had a precious memory about Laveta and LaVern. Some little things just stick in your mind and this is one that stuck in mine. This was before Rae became my sister-in-law so it would be probably around my sophomore summer year. Rae had her beauty-shop in the basement of Marie Erdman's house, now where Kris lives. She was in between appointments so we decided to walk down town. Coming up the street were the 2 bouncing twins, LaVeta and LaVern. They were laughing and teasing each other and as we met, Rae and I greeted them and of course asked how they were ( or something of that nature, like you do when you see little ones). LaVern got kind of quiet as we met and then he let out a big announcement, "Hey look! There are 2 Raes". We had quite a laugh over this and seen why he could have been confused because at that time to him we probably did look pretty similar as we both had blond, short hair, lite complected, both wore glasses,and both SLIM and tall.
It looks like the "Twin List" just keeps growing and growing. I'm sure no one realized there were so many twins that have connections to all of the Haiglerites. It's really fun to look at and remember these people and how much "fun" these "double-people" had and still have.
