I apologize if my ...Anon: thanks for the comment!<br /><br />I apologize if my tone was judgmental. That judgment was not directed at Niederbrock himself, necessarily. You are correct that divorce happens, although if this was not the reason for Walker's declining membership, surely something else equally dramatic must have happened.<br /><br />My narrative of these events is, loosely:<br /><br />- wayward wife (as evidenced by the fact that he kept the house); <br /><br />- delinquent daughter (as evidenced by her facebook pictures); <br /><br />- poor parenting by somebody (as evidenced by tolerating daughter's participation in an alt-music scene with an older girl)<br /><br />- <i>really</i> poor parenting / non-judgmentalism by wayward mother (as evidenced by allowing obviously criminal young man to <i>stay overnight in same house with daughter</i>).<br /><br />My theory is that Dad found out about this, grew a set, and went over to wayward wife's house to confront the situation. This obviously didn't go well.<br /><br />If you have any inside (sort-of) knowledge that can support or contradict any aspect of this theory, I will gladly run it and retract my idle speculation.Burkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14252946969701576139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29763791.post-66268436243374218842009-09-28T15:23:38.967-04:002009-09-28T15:23:38.967-04:00The town name, "Hixburg," is a bit ironi...The town name, "Hixburg," is a bit ironic, but it is actually named after a local family who owned a general store there and still owns a dairy farm across from the church.<br /><br />They *are* conservative and, of course, religious, but I don't think too many were bent out of shape over the separation. Mark was too beloved by the congregation for that. They were sorry, but come on, even in the country people know that divorce happens. Indeed, a recent study suggested that divorce is far more common in the rural south than anywhere else in the country.<br /><br />I knew Niederbrock and attended his funeral. Many of my extended family members attend Walker's and it is my mother's home church.<br /><br />I'm just a liberal atheist ;) Now, *that* does get them going...lol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29763791.post-49265072960729611192009-09-22T17:12:05.930-04:002009-09-22T17:12:05.930-04:00That kid is giving wiggers a bad name!That kid is giving wiggers a bad name!Justinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01023125641719686613noreply@blogger.com
