2006 That Sister of Mine ..............................................

This is hardly a memoir as I'm writing it today (Nov 16th '06) But it goes to show how history's pages turn.

Yesterday evening I phoned Sister Toni in Toronto for a chat and perhaps because of an urge to talk about my dad. I got the "This number is no longer in service" recording. So I redialed - same result. Three phone calls to Directory Enquiries got me nowhere although I have her address and phone number - evrything in fact.

Is she alive, dead, sick, moved, kidnapped? Took 34 years to find her - have I now lost her again? Is there that must told of "simple explanation"?

I'll write to her (old?) address and then wait for her (maybe) Christmas card. But today did have an awful empty ring to it.
