Rebecca Godsalve said her father was able to reunited with his long lost nephew after 60 years all due to a Google search. She posted this in the Google Web Search Help forums saying thank you to Google.

She explained that she was able to help her father find his lost nephew after "over 60 years" being lost from each other. She did this by using "Google searches" Her father is an "Air Force veteran who was separated from them at age 4," she explained.

After doing some searches, she "came across a random blogspot" blog and made the connection. Her father and his nephew have been in in constant communication since.

AJ from Google said "we are very happy for you and your family, and are excited that Google Search helped you in your journey!" AJ also sent the family Google Cardboard since Rebecca said the family is "over the moon" since they've been reunited.

What a nice sweet story.
