welcome to my home!
Found
my sister and her family! I had been searching for my half-sister for 3 years in the internet and I finally found her,
thank God! Bonny Lynn Rollins Joplin, and she had two children, Alexis Ross and Shawn Ross who are all grown-ups
now. I also met my half-brother, Peter Rollins in Florida when I finally was able to visit the USA last September,2005.
Meetimg my siblings was a moment of unbelievable miracle. I had been waiting all my life to the
day I may meet them and now that I am 65 and pushing 66, life has indeed become more exciting for me as it it had
been when I was 26. Bonny Lynn, Peter and I are all children of Clayton Merle Rollins Jr., also known as "MIKE",
who was a WWII army veteran assigned to the Philippines during the war. .
From the Philippines, Ginny Rollins Natividad
I also met thru the internet a lot of cousins and second cousins on my father's side, and I have never thought
I would have a huge family on the other side of the world. (my grandfather apparently came from a brood of 9 children)

The
internet has proven to be instrumental in making my life more meaningful, because through it , I had been able to discover
and meet relatives from all parts of the world. I am an American-Filipino who was a daughter of a veteran US army officer
assigned here in the Philippines during WWII, and during my dad's lifetime, I hardly got to know his family. Now I know he's
happier up there in heaven knowing I have met and traced a lot of relatives and my newly-found cousins from the USA are helping
me search for my sister and brother, and in the process, I really am learning a lot about my roots. I feel I am a much better
person now that I have started discovering my origins.
