Finding An Old Friend After 50 Years

Hi there,

If you haven't seen an old friend for 50 years, why not contact me and see if I can help - like I did for Roger!

*****************************

Dear Robin

I must write to tell you that I had success, on finding Don Thomas on that last address you gave me at the "bungalow".

He phoned me yesterday afternoon. It is 50 years since I have seen him, we had a good chat, and have agreed to meet with another friend in the Spring. He also has a computer which is a little unusual for people of our age so we can contact each other.

Robin, thank you very much for your efforts.

As matter of interest what are the chances of finding someone who emigrated to Canada, and all I know is his name and the town he went to about 45 years ago ?

Kindest regards

Roger Garrett

Hi there,

Sorry I haven't blogged any of my successes for a little while.

Here is an email I received about a month ago from one very happy customer.

Cheers

Robin

Dear Robin,

Further to an enquiry I made to Forces Reunited, in which I was trying to contact Peter Mullins, so that my fiancée could re-establish contact with his wife Wendy, prior to our wedding in October, you kindly replied to me on 30 August, giving 3 possible contacts for P. Mullins.

I am very pleased to say that the third contact you provided (the one who lives only 2 miles from yourself!), was the Peter Mullins that we were searching for.

Although business commitments meant that they were out of the country for our wedding, Wendy did come through to us in Wales for Andrea’s hen night and the two ladies have been regularly running up our respective phone bills frequently since!!

Andrea, my wife, was thrilled to be back in touch with her friend and it was wonderful for her that Wendy was able to join her on her hen night. Wendy also used to know several of the other ladies on the hen night, so was herself able to re-establish several friendships.

None of this would have happened without your help and we are very grateful to you for your help.

I am sorry it has taken me so long to write this note of thanks, but things have been very hectic with the wedding plans, the wedding, etc.

You can be sure that we will recommend forces reunited to anyone we know who have lost touch with friends from the past who have served in the forces.

Thank you again for all of your help.

Kindest Regards

Richard and Andrea Patterson
