Betty Gail Brown was my cousin and older than me. Her mother Quincy Alice Stanton (Brown) was my mother's sister. Quincy passed away some years ago while living in Forida. My mother passed in 1992. There are still 3 brothers living. Quincy always believed she knew who did it and for years was angry at the college for the things they did not do immediately following them finding her in her little car on campus. I wish someone would finally find the murderer but now her parents are gone and I am not sure anyone cares. I do. You have no idea how this ruined Qunicy and Hargus' lives. They were never the same. Thanks to everyone who cares. Sorry I did not see this thread back in 2006.
