Roloffs

I finally made it through all of your posts. Everything about the Roloff homes that I have read here and elsewhere is almost identical to the Hephzibah House in Warsaw, IN where I was imprisoned for a little over 2 years. A few girls seem to remember the guy who runs HH, Pastor Ronald E Williams, being somehow associated with Roloff. I am trying to find the affiliation but, as we all know, the internet didn't exist 50 years ago so I'm having trouble. If anyone knows of any information that would be of use to me please email me at https://www.blogger.com/blogin.g?blogsp ... pot.com%2F . Unfortunately, we had to make it private due to harrassment and so you will have to ask to join if you want to read the blogs or talk to the girls on there. We have been disgussing the Roloff homes quite a bit lately. I hope to see a few of you on there.

I may know someone who could find that out...not entirely certain. Give me a couple of days to look into it please.
Thx

Thanks. Although I have talked to some accountable people tonight and I now do not believe there to be an affiliation between Ron Williams and Lester Roloff other than a fondness for one another in their belief systems. You guys have a great site here and Lorri has done a fantastic job with her research. I have passed several links and tidbits on to the Hephzibah House site. I think the most profound thing I read on here was when Lorri said that it often takes decades for survivors to come forward which seems to be the case with HH survivors as well. Do you all find it's easier to remember the first half of your time at the Roloff homes than it is the second half of your incarceration due to having to conform? I remember a lot more about the first year I was at HH than the second half when I learned to conform and had my head up their asses trying to kiss it from the inside out. I was a mindless (and headless) zombie. LOL. The stories are all similar and familiar on not only this site and Hephzibah House's site but all the survivor sites I've been watching and researching. I think if we got several survivor sites together and combined them and made a roar or wrote a book filled with stories then maybe...just MAYBE....someone might finally realize the shit that is going on behind these doors in the name of religion.

Well, transferred, there's a lot of stuff that a vast number of us, specifically from Roloff's do NOT remember. There's really nothing more I can add regarding that. Connecting with people that have been there tends to help recover the memories...but not everything. Seems like the only time everything is clear is left to the nightmares.

lorrie's stories are true. my name is eric sharman. i soent 2 1/2 years in the anchor home for boys. i personally have no bad words against lester. his staff i have many things. lock-up, paddlings, denial of food, mental abuse, physical abuse, oh yea and dont forget about children that disappeared never to be heard from again. how do i know this. i was a throw away child. so anchor was my home away from home. i even answered the phone while working in the "front office" when i parent called for their monthly phone call. i wish i could have seen their faces when i told them he was sent home a few weeks prior, AND THE PARENTS HAD NO IDEA WHERE THEIR CHILD IS EVEN TO THIS DAY!!!!!! names forget it. those names will forever be burned in my mind. maybe on my deathbed will i reveal.
