Sisters separated by adoption meet 56 years later in N.B.

Sharon Rein met her sister Sharon Dennis at Fredericton airport Sunday when Rein, the older at 58, flew in from South Africa where both women were born. Dennis. who is 56, was put up for adoption by her parents in 1960 because they felt they could not care for a third child. Dennis moved to Canada in 1994. It was only a death-bed confession by their mother that a child had been put up for adoption that led to the reunion. It was Rein who heard the secret from her mother and then went on to use social media to locate her sister. It worked, and the two spoke for the first time by phone earlier this year.  CBC
