When your loved ones live far away, it can sometimes be difficult keeping in touch with them.
Bert is an 85-year-old man who is still full of life and loves riding his bicycle. He hasn’t ever moved from his hometown of Winton, Australia, where he was born in 1928.
His daughter, however, moved away and he hadn’t seen her in years. The two were inseparable when she was younger, but were torn apart by residential differences.
Bert said his only wish was to “see her again before I go,” and thanks to the help of Tim Tam, his daughter was flown back to Winton for a heartfelt reunion.
Despite not seeing each other for years, they were still two peas in a pod, not missing a beat and picking up the conversation right where they left it years ago.
With no desire for anything else but to see his daughter again, you can’t help but feel the love emanating from Bert, and hope to one day have a bond as special as the one he shares with his daughter.
