A true story, by, Ron Doring Part 1  It was sometime around the summer of 1960, when the Nix's moved across the street from us. This was at our first little home in Corpus Christi, on Moravian drive, before we moved over to our second home there, a two story house over on Panama street. Sadly, the Nix family was a broken one, and so it was just the mother "Nelda Nix," and her teenager son Larry.   And at that time the Nix's were the only family I had ever known, who had been divorced. And boy, how different a world that was back then, than the oh so sad one we now live in, where in many cases, many Kids now probably only know or a family or two that has not been broken up by divorce! Anyway this meant Mrs. Nix worked hard, long hours to try to provide a living for her self, and for her only son, Larry. I think she was a waitress somewhere. But wherever she worked, she worked long hours, because she was never at home during the day, and she seldom ever got home before
