Your half-sister Lynn

Today your sister Lynn and her family came to meet all of us - John she is lovely and I'm sure you would have got on with her. Her husband Courtney introduced himself as the "Black sheep of the family" - he is Jamaican and has a lovely warm personality. Her daughter (your niece) Tracey and her husband BJ have a beautiful baby daughter Tiana age 14 months. Lynn is so cross with your Dad and her mother for depriving her and you of getting to know one another. She also hated being an only child and wanted to be part of a larger family just like you - well you were but just didn't know it! Tracey loved getting to know her cousins and our family enjoyed the afternoon with the family they didn't know about. The first thing Tracey said when she saw Graham was "doesn't he look like Grandad" and Graham looks like you. Lynn brought some photos of your Dad and you looked so much like him especially round the eyes. She sent me a beautiful bouquet of flowers to say thank you and we are going to keep in touch. I hope you can forgive your Dad for keeping you a secret but things were different all those years ago and divorce was frowned upon and we don't know how difficult it was between your Mum and him. Thinking of you all the time. Anne xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
