      I am looking for an old penpal i had that attended Uni of Texas many years ago. Her name was CYNDI ABBOTT and she was studying psychology. I live in Australia and have tried really hard to find her on FB, but only thought the other night maybe someone in this group might know of her. She is originally from San Antonio and is an only child. Please message me if you know her or any of her contact details. We were penpals for years as kids and I would like to reconnect with her
