(Jan. 4) - A brother and sister in England who fell out of touch decades ago recently found out they had been living just 300 yards apart from each other, according to Britain's Telegraph.
Ken Whitty of Stockport, Greater Manchester, and his sister, Yvonne, grew up together but were placed in the care of a family friend when their parents died. They eventually lost contact with each other after Whitty left home at the age of 21.
After numerous attempts to reach his sister over the years, Whitty wrote to the Manchester Evening News asking for assistance. "I thought, it is Christmas, I am 65 next year and I have got to do something. I just had to do it this year. I did not even know if Yvonne was still alive," Whitty said.
