I was adopted about one or two months after I was born. I was placed in foster care with the San Diego County Department of Public Welfare (as it was called then) and my foster care name was "George." My case worker's name was Melissa Sue Richardson‚ who I still remember like yesterday since she made regular visits to my adopted family's home until I was five years old or so. That's about all I know from the records I still have‚ other than that my adopting parents' fee paid to the county was $500...which I always have joked is what I "cost"...a lot of money in 1969.
