If tears could build a stairway,

And memories were a lane,

I would walk right up to Heaven

To bring you home again.

Do not stand at my grave and weep

I am not there. I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow.

I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain.

I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush

I am the swift uplifting rush

Of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry;

I am not there. I did not die.

Robert Frost

John Wayne Gacy was born on March17th, 1942, in Chicago, Illinois, to John and MarionGacy. He died May 10th, 1994 by lethal injection, at theage of fifty-two.

Gacys childhood was an abusive one. Hisfather was an alcoholic who beat his wife and children on a regularbasis and he referred to the younger Gacy as a stupid little sissyand a mamas boy. When Gacy was nine years old he was molested by afamily friend. At eleven, he developed a blood clot in his headafter being hit in the head by a swing and began to have blackouts.His father believed that his son was faking the blackouts; however,Gacy was eventually treated to dissolve the clot.

At twenty years old, John Gacy left home andheaded to Las Vegas, Nevada, where he worked for three months at amortuary before quitting and returning to Chicago. In Chicago, heenrolled in the Northwestern Business College and got hired by theNunn-Bush Shoe Company in Springfield, Illinois, as a salesperson.It was there that he met fellow employee, Marlynn Myers. Two yearslater, in September of 1964, he and Marlynn were wed.

After completing his apprenticeship, Gacy waspromoted to manager of his department. He became active in localSpringfield organizations, joined the Jaycees, and rose tovice-president of the Springfield chapter by 1965.

Gacys father-in-law offered him a positionmanaging three Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurants in Waterloo,Iowa. By this time, Gacy had a family: two children, a son namedMichael, and a daughter, Christine. Not long after moving to Iowa,Gacy had his first known homosexual experience with a colleague ofthe Waterloo Jaycees, which he had joined after moving there. Gacybecame involved in pornography, drugs, and prostitution on aregular basis, and in 1967 he molested a teenage male employee atone of his restaurants.

Gacy opened a private club in his basementwhich catered to his employees. He would often encourage hispatrons to drink and then make sexual advances towards them. Gacyonce permitted a teen to have sex with his wife in order toblackmail the teen into having oral sex with him. However, hislittle club came to a grinding halt when in March of 1968, twoteens aged fifteen and sixteen accused Gacy of sexual assault.Gacy was arrested and ordered by the judge to undergo a psychiatricevaluation at the Psychiatric Hospital of the State University ofIowa. Over a seventeen-day period, two doctors concluded that Gacywas mentally competent to stand trial, but that he had anantisocial personality and would likely repeat his sexualbehavior.

On December 3rd, 1968, John WayneGacy was convicted of sodomy and sentenced to ten years at theAnamosa State Penitentiary in Iowa. That day, his wife filed for adivorce, petitioning for all the matrimonial property and alimonypayments. The Court ruled in her favor, and in September, 1969, thedivorce was finalized. Gacy never saw his ex-wife or two childrenever again.

Gacy was a model prisoner. While in prison,he completed sixteen high school courses, obtained his diploma,helped to secure an increase in the prisoners daily pay, andsupervised several in-prison projects. He was released on parolewith a twelve-month probation period on June 18th, 1970.He promptly left Iowa and moved home to live with his mother inChicago the next day.

Gacy, with assistance from his mother, boughta house in Chicago, and it wasnt long before he met Carole Hoff,who he married on July 1st, 1972. By this time, however,Gacy had already begun his killing spree. Just eighteen months outof prison, Gacy murdered his first victim.

Timothy McCoy, a boy fifteen years old, wastraveling from Michigan to Omaha on January 2nd, 1972,when Gacy picked him up at Chicagos Greyhound Bus Terminal. Gacybrought the boy back to his house, reassuring the boy that hedreturn him to the bus station the next morning. Timothy ended upbeing stabbed to death and buried in a crawl space which was thencovered in cement.

Three years later, one of Gacys employees,John Butkovitch, seventeen years old, disappeared in July. The daybefore, John had threatened Gacy as Gacy owed him two weeks backpay. According to Gacy, he lured John to his home and thenstrangled him to death and buried him under the cement floor in thegarage. It is interesting to note that Johns parents called thepolice more than one hundred times over a three year period, urgingthem to investigate Gacy to no avail.

In March of 1976, Gacys wife left him. As hesuddenly had the house to himself, this gave Gacy the opportunityto kill more often, and he didnt waste any time. Between April andOctober of 1976, Gacy killed a minimum of eight youths between theages of fourteen and eighteen, seven of whom he buried in his crawlspace, and the other beneath his dining room floor. In December of1976, Gregory Godzik, another employee of Gacy, also went missing.In the time that he worked for Gacy, Gregory had told his familythat Gacy had put him to work digging trenches for a drain in thecrawl space beneath his house.
