Reunited

Post by Javier730 »

My father came to this country 42 years ago for a better life. He became an American citizen, got married and started a family. My father worked very hard and built his home just how he designed it.

Unfortunately he lost contact with his family back home. Today, after 42 years of not seeing or hearing from his family, he was reunited with 3 of his brothers. He was so happy. It made me so happy to see him happy. Today was a great day.

Praise the Lord! Nothing like a family reunion and 40 years is a very very long time. Most people would have given up. I am excited for your family. Don't take it for granite. :thumbs2:

Congratulations! That is really great. Family is a precious commodity.
