What a wonderful story. Thanks for posting it.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful story. I love DNA adoption stories that have happy endings like this one.

I don’t think Lynne Moody ever appeared on The Waltons. The actress who played Verdie’s daughter Esther in The Illusion was Joan Pringle.

Lynne Moody and Joan Pringle played the same role on That’s My Mama, which is referred to in the story. The woman who was adopted recalls seeing her birth mother, Moody, on that sitcom in the early 70s. Pringle replaced Moody in the second season of the show.

That may be where the confusion is coming from.

Thanks. I was just reading up on both actresses and saw that they had both played the same role on That’s My Mama, so you’re probably correct. It’s still a nice story.
