I have found that I love doing "Search Angel" projects. I enjoy using my skills to solve people's DNA mysteries and, in particular, finding birth parents. On February 9, 2026, I posted about success in finding the father of an old friend of my wife's. Then, the first week of March, there was another person needing help finding their birth father. I was successful in tracking down her birth father to be one of two brothers. Narrowing it down further will require contact with a first cousin match. I started this project after responding to a message in the DNA Detectives Facebook group.

Another Search Angel Success
My wife and I attended her high school class reunion last summer. I met a number of her old classmates I hadn't met before. She had been chatting with an old friend of hers while I went up to get something to nibble on. When I returned, I heard my wife say to her friend, "My husband can find him for you." It ends up that this friend of my wife's never knew who her father was. Her mother passed away years ago and would never tell her. When I heard the story, I was happy to give it a try. Nothing beats the feeling you get when you're able to use your skills and really make a difference in someone's life.
