Memoirs of an Adopted Child

Who was this Thomas Liotti whose name appeared on Mary Sirchia's Ancestry relatives list? Listed as a second cousin, he had an unfamiliar surname and his identity remained as mysterious as his connection to the family. Who was his mother? Who was his father? Why such a family secret? Was it a scandalous affair? When Mary requested he share his family tree, Thomas suggested she read his book The Secret Adoption. While reading the book the mystery began to unfold. Mary recalled a story of her cousin who gave birth to a baby boy on May 29, 1947 and gave him up for adoption six days later. She believed the mysterious second cousin now had an identity Thomas F. Liotti. The power of Mary s love brought the family together and initiated his welcoming into his new family.
