The childhood home of Laura Jean Unzicker Martin at 1721 11th Street, Peru, Illinois. Steve Martin

Laurie Martin lived here for 18 years before leaving…to marry me! Otto and Lorraine Unzicker, her parents, owned it for more than 50 years. Lorraine’s last years here on earth were spent here. Our children, Josh, Ben, Hannah, and Christen know it well, as does their Mom and I.
