In 1955, A Baby Was Found In The Woods. 58 Years Later, The Craziest Thing Happened
While out hunting as a teenager, Dave Hickman found an infant abandoned in the forest. On death's doorstep, the baby was rescued by Dave and his grandfather. Shortly thereafter, the baby was adopted, and Dave never saw her again. Until one day...

Dave and his grandfather contacted the proper authorities and handed over the baby girl. She was soon nursed back to health.Â
It wasn't long until a family adopted Roseann Wayne. With no knowledge of where she was going, Dave nearly resigned to the thought that he'd never see the baby girl again.
Sheriff John Catey (pictured above) revealed to Dave that he'd found the baby girl--except that she was, of course, no longer a baby girl.
After reaching out to Mary Ellen via telephone, Dave finally got a chance to meet her in person.
After 58 years of neither knowing anything about the other, they finally meet face to face. And it's absolutely perfect.
