Every love story is special, but the one Janice Rude and Prentiss Willson shared is one of a kind. The two met while in college, and you could say that they were college sweethearts.
However, it did take time for things to happen. Coming from different upbringing and lifestyles, their relationship was almost prone to failure before it even started. Things weren’t the same back in the 60s as they are today. Janice was a sophomore while Prentiss was a freshman at Occidental College, a private and very expensive liberal arts institution located in L.A. She had a dream of becoming a biologist and he was always pushed to become a doctor or a lawyer. Janice was working at the school’s cafeteria in order to help pay for her tuition, and when Prentiss walked in one morning to get his daily breakfast, she knew there was something different about him.
When their eyes met, it was love at first sight, just like in the movies. While it took them some time to overcome their shyness, they eventually became very close. One day, however, things took a different turn and Janice knew she had to take things into her own hands in order for them to become even closer. Since that defining moment, it seemed like everything was on the rise and nothing could hurt their strong bond. When these two lovebirds have decided to make their love official and tie the knot, they had to face another bump in the road and eventually had to go their separate ways. All these years it was almost like they were living identical yet parallel lives. Little did they know that a crumpled piece of paper will put all the piece back together. Janice and Prentiss’ story is a story about love, lose and fate.
