Hello John, this is Lynn your sister. We never knew each other, in fact we never knew each other existed. I wish with all my heart that I had been given the chance to know you, I feel such a sadness and loss at not meeting you, my brother John. After my mum died I found out about you. I tried searching for you but because of your change of surname was unable to trace you. A couple of months ago your friend Peter contacted me and put me in touch with Anne. I met Anne and the family at your house at the begining of April. You have such a wonderful wife, children and family, you must be so proud. My husband Courtney, my daughter Tracey and her husband BJ and daughter Tiana came along as well and we all had such a wonderful day. Anne is such a lovely lady and I saw pictures of your wedding day and of the two of you together during your marriage. Anne gave me a lovely family picture. Even though we never met I miss you. I miss not knowing you, I miss not getting to know my brother. You do resemble you dad Joseph in many ways. Joseph was a good dad to me and a good husband to my mum but unfortunately died in 1981 aged 64 from lung cancer after a very bad fall. I do not know what happened in the family between your mum and Joseph but I can assure you he was a good man. I believe you were watching over us at our meeting in April, the house was full of your spirit and love for your family. Well big brother, this is all for now I will write again soon. Love, your sister, Lynn x
