Her name full is crystal Maria brooks I haven’t found out her marriage name yet. I wish to my last breath on this earth I can track her down. She’s a part of me that is missing. I hired a private investigator hoping he will find her. Even if she wants nothing todo with me I just want to know she’s alive and doing well. She basically was taken from me. I was just the father had no say back then. It took me a year to sign. But that was after being pressured by the lawyers. I had no real money to fight it. Or knowledge back then I just know I was really heavy hearted when I finally signed. Above profile pic is Krystal’s mother Vanessa I took this picture here in Arizona at a lake we were at. If Krystal sees this atleast she knows what her mother looks like now. Vanessa and I are both ages 54. She was born in February 1971. I was born March 1971. We both met in high school in 1987 we been back together since 2012. She was my first love and my last till I leave this earth. We both feel really terrible about crystal. At the time we were both pressured by our family. Vanessa mother was over protective of Vanessa wouldn’t let her keep crystal at the time. I wish I could go back in time change the outcome. But I can’t. I just hope crystal understands why and how it happened. I would love to find my only daughter crystal ! Our address Amado AZ Vanessa Rossi and Mike scott Sondgeroth It was a private adoption. Unfortunately we don’t know who through. Vanessa mother arranged the adoption. She has passed away not telling us. But crystal was moved to California with the new family. From Tucson I have asked Vanessa. It’s to hard for her to think about. It makes her cry. So I’m doing this on my own to find my daughter. I am the birth father it took me a year to sign adoption papers there attorney threaten me by sueing me I was 19 at the time was on medical discharge from army If I remember correctly they lived in Pasadena California. Southern Cali. At the time I lived in happy camp California crystowas adopted in Tucson. Since then vanessa Rossi birth mother have gotten married in 2016. Live in San Manuel Arizona. Out side of Tucson Crystal should be 28 now I have lived with guilt my entire adult life signing the papers They made me feel bad at the time there attorney. Mislead me look at the original forms your see I wanted contact with crystal from the start. 2025 I would love to find my daughter. I have felt sad since 1990. I was scared into giving her up. Legal counsel’s and our family members. I miss her.she’s my only daughter. I know I can’t turn back time. I was adopted myself so I understand with adopted family history. I just need closure. I’ve been guilt ridden since I was forced to sign the adoption papers. If I didn’t they I was going to be sued according to there adopted parents legal counsel’s at the time they called me numerous times over a year because I refused to sign. Crystal is half Mexican/Central American native part Cherokees blood from me and white.my grandfather was 3/8 Cherokee .She has the same blood type as me. A positive. I remember this. I had a picture of her and the 2 older brothers that they sent me. I had it with n my wallet for years but the picture wore out. Faded. Ripped overtime. That’s the only thing I got. I believe they lived in central/california at the time. I at the time was in happy camp ca. after I was medically discharged from army. I got injured. Was a mess mentally. She was all I thought of at the time. Was left feeling hopeless. Because Vanessa mother made all the arrangements. My parents went along with it. Told me not to pursue it. I wish I had but was probably a loosing effort on my end. Since I was just the father. I am currently retired from operating engineers We live in Amado Arizona her birth mother Vanessa and I. We been together again since 2012. Vanessa has 2 other children Mariah And Dominick. Named after his grandfather who died in Dec 1989 Barbara Rossi Vanessa mother died earlier this year 2025 Crystal has 2 half siblings from Vanessa. I never had children after crystal. To me crystal is special to me. At the time of her birth I was in boot camp. Her parents were over bearing on there thoughts so was my parents. I was shunned by everyone on both sides. I had no choice on my end. At the time I thought. My backwards I wish I was a stronger person then. I really wanted to keep crystal but everyone made up there minds proceeded on the adoption. Her mother I love her but at that time she was very adamant on the adoption. Vanessa wasn’t even able allow to hold crystal. Barbara just wheeled her out of the hospital here I. Tucson. According to Vanessa now that we talk about crystal. I had a lot of phone conversations with the lawyers on the adoptive parents side. They tricked me into signing the paperwork if I added conditions to wha I want I typed conditions on the paperwork. Then after I signed they called me all surprised why I add the conditions. Looking back on of them tricked me. I would never had signed. If they were straight forward with me. That’s probably why they used that tactic. But I’m hoping she had a good life. The family picture looked like they were well off. I wasn’t at the time. If she finds me on here she can go to facebook or Twitter X. To find me it’s all public information. Michael Scott Sondgeroth. I have pictures on both sites from the past 20 years. Of me and my type of work places etc. and pictures of both Vanessa her mother and me. At the time of her adoption I wasn’t given a say on how I felt about it. Like I said before I was in basic training and AIT training then the Army sent me to Ft Lewis during this time frame. Everything was sprung on me. I’m sure Vanessa felt terrible about the situation as well. I didn’t even know people from California was adopting crystal. I was not told. Then I get. Served papers after the fact. I was blindsided. This is my perception of it. My side of everything. It has eaten me up inside ever since. No one asked me my feelings or anything. It just happened. I remember coming home for Christmas break between basic training and AIT training. Every one was on me my parents were upset at me I had to go and talk to Vanessa father before he died. Both my parents and him giving me a stern talking to. I felt so small sitting at his table. But no one told me about adoption at that time. I went back to training in the Army. There were no cell phones back then. I didn’t have much personal time. I should have stood up more. I’m to blame for my part on not being stronger person at the time. Signing the adoption papers. I should have fought it harder. I did for a year. The lawyers kept calling me they finally said there take me to court I would lose. I was adopted at age 10. I understand how being adopted is. And everything that goes with it. I just hope someday she will look me up. I was 17 -18 at the time when Vanessa got pregnant from me. I just have to say I was pushed out of everything. I have been guilt ridden ever since. Me being the father I couldn’t have the power over the will of Vanessa mother and father. The father put me through a ringer of a talking. My parents were not supportive of me my adopted parents. They were pist at me.. I never wanted to sign the adoption papers. It took me a year to before the lawyers tracked me down. I often wonder about crystal. She’s my only blood daughter. I don’t blame the adoption parents. I am sure they have given her a good education and family values. But I’m still her blood father. I miss her every day not a day goes by I don’t have a thought of her I really missing her. Even though I never got to hold her. It’s that bond of me being her blood father. That’s probably why I feel like this all these years. Give a back ground on me. After I got medical discharge from the army I got injured at FTLewis. Training accident. They discharged me. I had an option to be operated on but I would be in the hospital care for a year. The doctor told me there was a chance of paralyzing me. I chose the discharge. My first LT wanted me to go into officer school before I got injured. Anyway my army career was cut short because of my injuries. I have to be honest I was suicidal too because of the guilt over Crystal /vanessa. But then I moved to happy camp CA. Spent 2 years there. Getting to now my real sister and my biological mother Shirley . That is where the lawyers found me. Then I moved to Alaska with a family friend. I spent 30 years working in Alaska in construction/oil fields. With the Alaska operating engineers. Retired in 2023
