Laura - Thank you for sharing your efforts of their story. My cousins are
working to find a Grandfather, and I'd like to share your story with
them, to give them hope.
Cheri is so right, about more needing to take DNA tests. One of the Kits
that I manage, had a match in 2012 at 38.
This is another reason that everyone should get their DNA tested. Even if
you think your genealogy is "done" and you have nothing to gain, you
actually have answers in your DNA to help others. Almost everyone has a
pai(s) incognito(s) in their tree. And all the adoptees we can help.

What a wonderful gift you gave to this family member and to your azores
group family. My motto "never give up." Wishes and promises do come true,
maybe 20 years later but, eventually, they do with kind, caring people such
as yourself.
Thank you for sharing this inspiring journey. "E"
On Fri,
That is indeed one of the most beautiful stories I've heard. Thanks to your
tireless efforts to make a dream come true! Thanks too for sharing this
inspiring, epic journey.

Laura that's a great story. God works through people and often in mysterious
ways. You mentioned your mom is French Canadian. I don't know much about this
DNA stuff, only the basics I guess, but my wife is French Canadian and she's
had a Family Finder DNA test done. I have done some research
OMG another wonderful story. I hope someone is keeping track of all these.
What a wonderful book it would make.

OMG. The most beautiful blessed story I've ever heard. I got goose bumps,
tears, heart palpitations, and a huge smile to start my day.
Please tell me you've turned this story into 20/20 or Oprah or Good morning
America or someone. Others in that situation need to know its not
Laura,
Thank you. This is a moving story and your efforts to help another person is
a blessing .
I think there is a Portuguese word to express this desire " Saudade "which I am
told is hard to translate but has the meaning of the feeling of longing for
something or someone who you love and
WOW HAPPY

Wow! That is amazing! I wish I could understand the DNA stuff more but it
just doesn't click in my brain! That is so awesome! I pray that you will be
blessed to find the connection you need to find your father. You did such a
wonderful thing! Thanks for sharing!

I wanted to take a moment and share with all of you, my Portuguese
genealogy family, a heartwarming beautiful story that I was blessed to be
involved in over the past few days. As many of you know, I am adopted, and
I have been searching for my biological father for many years now. 5 years
