“We’ve done everything together since the day we were born,” Norma Matthews says about her sister.

They go for the coffee and doughnuts, as well as to hear the music they know by heart, Norma said, but they also soak up the fuss people make over them. “People love that we’re still together,” Norma said. “We’ve done everything together since the day we were born.”

She and Norma dressed alike, played pranks on their teachers by switching classes and helped look after their little brother, John. “We didn’t have it easy, but we had a lot of fun,” said Edy, recalling how they put on plays and puppet shows, and shared secrets, wardrobes and the same brass bed.When their mother remarried, boys had to ask permission to take them on walks because they weren’t allowed to date, Norma said.

“Edy was always there for me, and I was always there for her,” Norma said. “Whenever I’d get sick, Edy would somehow know. She’d call me up or come rushing over to make sure I was okay.” Their commitment to their Christian faith has helped guide their life choices, they said. “There’s only up or down, so forgive others and keep clean for your own sake,” Norma said. “Edy and I have done our best to take that to heart.”
