My father and mother in 1956
Well it's been a long time coming but almost unbelievably the search is over. Late November I took a phone call at work late one evening which with in a couple of weeks lead to me speaking to my Father for the first time in nearly 40 years. The story comes to an end in the next week when my brother and I travel to Las Vegas to meet him. I’ll post more details when I get back. In the mean time a big thanks to all those over the years who have helped me in my search, and particularly to Nick who made that phone call last November.
The story of how I finally found my missing family was told on BBC Radio 4 on the
16 April 2002, on the Home Truths Program.
They produced a rather fine text version of the story.
