What a gift - The World Wide Web and Google has helped a father and a daughter reunite after 27 years of not seeing each other. Dirk Pratt, father of Francesca, was told by his mother-in-law that his daughter had died when she was bitten by a mosquito while visiting Ecuador with her mother.
According to ABC, Dirk Pratt spent years mourning his daughter. Every year on Franseca's birthday, Pratt said that he wrote a letter to her and then burned it. Pratt said the smoke would take the letter to heaven allowing Franseca to read it.
Pratt said,"I blamed myself, I blamed her and I blamed God."
One day, Pratt decided to search his name on Google. He was in awe when he found someone who had written him a letter saying they were trying to get in contact with him. It was his daughter, Franseca.
Dirk Pratt and his daughter recently reunited and plan to live together so they can get to know each other. Another way technology touches our lives everyday.
