It has almost been a year since Ruben and his sister Mimi reconnected.
Mimi's Service representatives contacted Trinity Services looking for
Ruben in May 2006.Both Ruben and Mimi's service teams had been looking
for each other for over three years.
A visit was arranged for
Mimi to come to Ruben's home on Memorial Day last year. They were
overjoyed to see one another and could not stop hugging and greeted
each other by saying "I missed you."
Both Ruben and Mimi have
made an effort to take turns visiting each other's homes at least once
per month. They have now gotten to visit each other's homes, go on
lunches, dinners, exchange birthday and Christmas gifts since their
first visit. Ruben is thrilled to show pictures of him and Mimi from
his visits which are proudly hung on his bedroom wall. Ruben and Mimi
also exchanged phone numbers and talk a few times a week just to catch
up.
The most amazing part of this story is that Ruben and Mimi
are two of ten siblings. Both of their parents passed on and they were
each put in different agencies and have moved around many times since
then. It was one of Ruben's goals in life to get back in contact with
his sister.
Ruben is thrilled to have family back in his life!!!
