MY FRIEND LINA

Those of you that have known me from my Multiply site may remember me talking about one of the many friends that I had made at the time of the New York World's Fair that occurred back in 1964-65. One of the many Indonesians that I met was my girlfriend Lina. At the time of my trip to Indonesia last year I could not even begin to try to locate Lina because I did not know what her full name. I just located a professional photo that was taken of us before she returned to Indonesia in 1965 and to my amazement there is an inscription on the back of the photo from Lina with her full name. 

 

You have been a good sister to me, I am sorry that we have to leave each other.

I'll never forget all the things we done. I hope you will have a good future and the best of luck.

      Love you Always
