Looking for my pen friend Sandra
 

:) Hello,
I'm Eser Baransel, from Turkey, Ankara. I'm looking for my friend Sandra Rawstron Edmondson whom we had been pen friends for more than 15 years.
I've visited her in Accrington in 1989, she and her husband Stephen and both Sandra's mum and dad and Stephen's mum and brother showed me great hospitality. We've also been the subject of a news on a local paper with a title something like "Friends met, after 11 years" with a photo in which Sandra and me can be seen with pencil and paper in our hands as if we were writing letters.
Because of my illness we couldn't write to each other for some years. Once we have sent each other e-mails but now we completely lost contact.
I remember their house on Blackburn Road and there was a church at just the opposite of the road.
While I was searching in the internet, I've seen your forum and thought perhaps you can help me find my dear friend and her family.
Thanks a lot.
Eser

I know Sandra my sister used to mate about with her when they were younger. She lives near my sister so I will let her know you are looking for her.

Hey this is Jess, Sandra's daughter. Just created an account for my mum so you can talk to her soon. :)
Its the same address, the one with the church still across the road. She says that you're welcome over anytime.
Sandra says glad you made the effort, looking forward to hearing from you.

hi eser, this i stephen I remember that your brother was training to be a dentist hope to hear from you soon

Hi Jess,
I'm very happy to hear from you. Do you know that I have lots of photos of you and your sister in my albums.

I hope the whole family is healthy and happy.

Does your mother use computer to look at her e-mails. If so, the easiest way is , just send me the e-mail account of your Mum, so that I can send her letters electronically this time.

Thanks for replying. Tell your Mum, this time she has to come to Turkey. All of you are welcome.
Love,
Eser

Hi Stephen,
Yes, you remember correctly. He and his wife are dentists. They have a son, who is now 13 years old.
I'm looking forward to receive e-mails from Sandra, as I've already written to Jess, if possible.

Best wishes
