  I lived in Thailand between 1993 and 1996 volunteering for Ambassador Foundation. I helped a couple families relocate to Fort Wayne. I would love to get back in touch with them. I don’t know if the names Thimu and Hillier sound familiar to anyone there, but I was very close to them and the others that I helped. I would sure love to get back in touch with them. They are all very dear friends!! Thank you so much!! Love, Rhonda
