Through my web community, WNYPolonia.Com, I’ve encountered some people looking to reconnect with others.  This was the most notable and touching, a hand written message sent by fax to “The Mansion” on Delaware Ave. in Buffalo, NY.  (My sister-in-law worked there for a time.)

Re: Tadeusz Kieszczynski
Dear Sir / Madam:

The above-named was in the Air Force over here during the last war. In 1948 he emigrated to the U.S.A. and in April, 1948, the Polish Air Force Association had his address as yours {Delaware Ave, Buffalo, NY}.

He was born in 1921, was Polish, and intended to join a couple i BUffalo after the war, which he appeared to have done.

I was friendly with him for several years, and now that I am in the last part of my life (I am 85), would love to know that he was happy & had had a good like in the U.S.A.. (of course, he may not still be alive.)

Would it be possible that you know of his wherabouts, or could you find out where I could get the information? I have been happily married for 56 years, but lost my husband last August, so have plenty of time to think about the past. Tadeusz was my first love & I will never forget him.

I would be so grateful of an early reply to this letter, — it would mean a lot to me.

Sincerely,

Sybil Foard (Mn)
