Tragic Day in Oklahoma City
On a seemingly ordinary Wednesday over three decades ago, 12-year-old Kyle Genzer shared a heartfelt “I love you” with his mother, Jamie Genzer, before she left for her job in downtown Oklahoma City. The day was bright and clear, a stark contrast to the chaos that would soon unfold.
The Explosion
Minutes later, while Kyle was in class at Wellston Middle School, an explosion rocked the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, where his mother worked. The sudden noise was mistaken for thunder, but the tragedy that followed took a toll on the entire community.
Aftermath and Impact
In the aftermath, it would be revealed that Jamie was among the 168 victims of the bombing, America’s deadliest act of domestic terrorism, leaving a profound impact on Kyle and many others who experienced the loss firsthand.
