Hi everyone.  Just wanted to tell you the wonderful news.  I located my half brother (with alot of help from Carol), and he had his dad and my mom's wedding picture.  It was her.  That was the final piece of the puzzle.  We have been in constant contact ever since.  He has a wonderful family.  I would have never found him if it had not been for all of you.  I cannot express my gratitude enough.  If any of you would like to meet while I'm in Walsall visiting my new family, please send me a PM.  Thank you again for everything you did to help me find my family.  Best wishes to you all.  Diane/Dickensfan.

Hi Diane

That's fantastic news!  Have fun getting to know your new found family, I'm sure you have a lot of stories to share.  I bet you can't wait to get to Walsall  ;D

Yes, thanks Carol.  I sent emails and an e-card.  He loved it.  It was weird that I just happened to check his profile this morning and saw his birthday.  I really feel that a higher power has been guiding this entire process.  It might be mom.  Thanks again everyone for your kind sentiments.  Can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to the trip.  It went from sightseeing to something entirely different. Best wishes, Diane
