Godfreys Tonight- A Quick Kiss and you left in your uber

I thought you were super cool and very sexy. You asked me if I was gay, when I told you I like women you said that was awesome…your Uber came and your friends were leaving..You kissed me quick and got in the van. We didn’t exchange contact info. On the off chance you actually see this, tell me something about me that would be unique or different that stood out. I would love to get to know you better…you had on awesome shoes.

Looking for Bio Family (Oklahoma) 

I’m currently looking for my biological sister. She was given up for adoption in Richmond during the mid-1960’s. Her biological father’s name is Larry Joe Garner from Waldron, Arkansas. My understanding is she was from a family that already had numerous children and felt they couldn’t take care of one more so her maternal grandmother was going to raise her but due to unknown circumstances her grandmother decided to put her in an orphanage. Larry signed away his paternal rights and that’s all I know…Larry was stationed at Fort Belvior during December 1961 and December 1963. His best friends were Jim Evans and someone last name Rose. If you have ANY information, no matter how insignificant you may feel that it is PLEASE contact me by email, text or phone.
