Woman Finds Birth Mother In The Most Unusual Place After 23 Years

La-Sonya Mitchell-Clark, 38, had been working with her mother for four years before the two found out about it, ABC News reports.

Her sister—one of three Mitchell-Clark learned she has—works at the same company, InfoCision. The path to discovery began on Monday, when Mitchell-Clark’s birth record arrived in the mail. She learned that her mother’s name was Francine Simmons, and she looked up Simmons’ Facebook profile, which revealed her place of employment.

“There’s a Francine that works at my job. She works in (volunteer recruitment) and she works at the front desk,” she tells WYTV. It was the same Francine, and the two shared a tearful phone call soon afterward.

“They would come in contact around the building and during events such as our corporate summer cookouts,” says a rep for the company, which has put out an exclamation point-filled press release about the news. Simmons had always wanted to meet her daughter, who she gave up at age 15.

“Had her. Got to hold her. Didn’t get to name her, but I named her myself in my heart all these years,” Simmons tells ABC News. The two women live only six minutes apart.
