"J. D is my dad. We had a relationship when I was a child but were estranged for 18 years.. until 2018. God blessed us both. There was forgiveness and restoration. And I am so happy that I was able to get atleast 2 years of communication with my father ?? I had hopes of getting to see him again but God had a different plan. Love him and he will always be in my heart. "
