My grandmother always told me that Billy and Bobby and our famlies were somehow related. My Sister Jeanne was in Grade School at St. Bernards in Peoria with the twins. Just yesterday, I sent a copy of "The Prince & The Pauper" to my Son in Hollywood. He is a director of a new Twin show, "The Suite Life of Zach & Codey". I have original posters of Billy & Bobbie's Movies. They both will always be in my prayers.
