    A lovely Dutch man took me in when I was 12 and raised me like I was his own child. He gave me the best life ever,took me to school up until my Masters. I will always be indebted and I&apos;ll always pay it forward.❤

    I was taken in by a family in the 80s i kinda ended up being like an au pair, I was shown so much love in that home in Fulham, the man of the house noticed i loved listening to music and he had an outstanding record collection, there was also a beautiful 12string guitar in the living room that nobody played, when I was eventually leaving he offered me a loan of the guitar for 3 years to learn it. And true too his word 3yrs later he came to collect it at a gig I was playing in Ireland , he was like a proud father.. I was sad to see that guitar go however ive been a musician for 35 years since and have travelled far and wide playing music. One act of kindness changed my life. Im lucky as I have met a few people like that along the way. I always try pay it forward

    I’ve just sat and wept watching this. I worked for Rob Parsons for almost 6 years and he is the real deal. A heart of gold and a man full of wisdom and integrity. One of the best storytellers there is. Divina, your heart was so open and receptive. What a wonderful hour in their company.

    Bawling!!!! I too have a brain tumor from breast cancer metastasis. I live alone. It’s lonely. I’m so happy that Ronnie had a real family for so many years. I wish I had the same kind of family. Mine is divided. No one is close. Boy do I wish I had a support system like this!!! Bless this man and his family and I’m so glad I found this!! Humanity is NOT gone from this world.
