She was only 2 when her mother, Frankie Ann Merrell, was killed exactly 17 years ago in the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building.Now she's a freshman at Oklahoma City University, just four years
younger than her mother was when she lost her life while working as a
teller at the Federal Employees Credit Union.
The bombing killed 168 people and injured hundreds more.
