In sincere sympathy and with deepest regrets...I was trying to meet you but I guess it wasn't meant...hinderances and blocks abound in this place...until it took this for me to see his face...finally but at least that.
I would appreciate if the family would send us a family tree...that was what he said he would send me...if you please...in peace. c/o 612-404-8586.I AM the other Yvette.

I don't know why I had to find this on Fathers Day 2016.Strange how life turns out. I was looking for the church area code.to try to reach him once again. Strange the subject I was searching today was about did Jesus say call no man father...oh well.till we meet again.
