On Wednesday evening, Marion found her sister living in Henrico, Virginia. 

When Marion’s dad, Ken Suggs was dying in November, his wish was for Marion to find her family. So she dug and dug and never gave up and called a number she found while rummaging through a lot of paperwork.   

Marion then proceeds to send her a DNA test to be 100% sure. But Marion told WMAR-2 News' Jamie Costello that the woman answered all the questions correctly and was as you can imagine...floored!

Her words to Marion, “Oh my God, you’re my sister.”

Marion wants the news to sink in before going down to meet her. Amazing, just amazing.

We asked Marion how she is holding up, "I feel good, I feel a chapter in my life has been written."

Thanks to all of you for all your help.
