But we have also been sharing daily news and have developed long-distance friendships with our newly-found family. In August, Mary found this hat on e-bay and she and Becky bought it for Brendon and Wendy. Little did Mary and Becky know that Brendon and Wendy had been searching for several years for a hat made by the great-great-grandfather. What fun, that as this hat is passed down through the generations that the story about how a group of strangers became friends.
