Long shot - hoping someone knows my biological father
Edit: I know he has a Facebook but he doesn't use messenger or know how to reach the other folder where my message would have went. The only address I have found that may be his is one he may no longer live at because it looks condemned.
I was born in Kingston in 1987. For almost my entire life, I believed I knew who my biological father was. Recently, DNA testing turned that upside down, and I discovered that the man I had always believed was my biological father actually wasn't.
That started a pretty long journey of trying to figure out where I came from and who my biological father actually was. Through DNA matches, family connections, and eventually additional DNA testing, I was finally able to confirm his identity.
His name is Frank Rittie Sr., and he's from the Kingston area. It appears he used to be higher up in the fire department.
After going through all of that to finally find the answer, I've hit a problem I honestly didn't expect: I can't find a way to actually contact him.
I'm not looking to disrupt his life, demand anything from him, or put anyone in an uncomfortable position. I would just really like the chance to reach out to him myself and ask some questions. He is in his 80s now and I worry it is now or never. I really want to talk to him before I lose the chance forever.
He was married for 60 years and has adult children who are a great deal older than me. My mother was 20 and he was a married man in his 40s. My mother is no longer living so I am unable to ask her any of the million questions I have.
If you know Frank and would be willing to help me get a message directly to him, please send me a private message. I would prefer it to go straight to him and not his (other) children. I would appreciate it immensely.
