A DAUGHTER and her father have been reunited 38 years after she was forcibly removed by the church from his home in Dublin.
Christy Cox and his daughter Wendy (Suzanne) Parle were torn apart from one another when Wendy was just three months old.
The pair spent decades trying to track one another down only to find out that they lived a mere 45-minute drive away from one another across the Wicklow Gap, with Wendy residing in Rathdrum and Christy in Dunlavin.
Wendy was placed up for adoption as a baby, without Christy’s permission, after a priest called around to his family home in Crumlin and demanded the child be handed over.
