She passed his skeletons daily to radiation. He cheered her last one.
The mailbox was full of hate. Then one letter stopped him.
Bill Pyle spent years getting hate mail for the skeletons in his Oxford, Ohio front yard. The accusations ran to devil worship and promises of hell. The skeletons, meanwhile, were raising the flag at Iwo Jima and giving a dog a bone, with a bony beekeeper standing nearby. Then a handwritten letter arrived that he said stopped him dead in his tracks. It came from Tammy Wyche, who drove past his house daily on her way to radiation treatment. "A highlight of my journey has been checking to see who else has joined the bone family & what they are up to," she wrote, noting that September 11th would be her final session. "Tears came to my eyes," Pyle told CBS News. On the morning of her last treatment, Wyche looked right and found a whole skeleton crew holding signs, cheering her on. For every person with a bone to pick, Pyle now hears from 30 more, some as far as Australia.
