“an elderly woman, on a tour of the nursing home, was shocked when she saw an 83-year-old resident.”

Life Paths

After the painful divorce at the age of seven, fate led Kelly to the caring arms of her grandparents in Utah, while Barbara was sent far from her familiar surroundings to Texas.

Here she was taken in by a childless friend of her mother, a woman who gave her love and a home, but she could not fill the void of her lost sister.

Over the years, Barbara tried to track down her sister’s whereabouts, but without success.

Their mother’s death and the lack of crucial information made Barbara’s search nearly impossible, only increasing her desire for reunion.
