Talk about bed, breakfast and belief……. Jean and Erwin, welcomed us with many years of a home away from home at their place in Kybunga and Clare. As for countless others, they took us in thirty-five years ago when we had ‘nothing and no one’, as new immigrants to Australia. Now Aunt Jean came to visit us from S.A. It has been three years since we have been together. We talked of old times and looked at old photos.

Still, I wonder if we are more than just ‘people who needed support’ to them. They were ever so, so much more to us……our adopted Australian parents. Thank you, always.
