Roberto Sandli from Norway

Roberto and his daughters Baby Sofie and Celine age 8
Baby Sofie and his wife Elisabeth and Celine
I just became connected again with Roberto. We met him for the first time in Nicaragua in 1994 when he was 15 years old. His family were missionaries sent by the Norwegian government to Nicaragua. He was bright and fun and fluent in 4 languages: Swedish, English, Spanish and of course Norwegian. He was one of our translators in our clinic when we hardly knew what we were doing. He always teased us because if we did not know what to do for someone we always gave them Tylenol.....of course this was a joke between us for years. I would of been so proud to have a son like him. He was just a blessing to us and we shared many laughs and probably a few tears! His Father Berger and Mother and sister were also very sweet and very kind to the Nicaraguan people! His Dad had an air-conditioned office at one of the sites (Cuidad Sandino?) we were at and he always waved Yvonne and I in to come in and get out of the heat for a break. What a treat for me to re-connect with him! God is so good!!
Him and his lovely family live in Alesund northwest of Norway by the Sea and he is a manager in an Apple Store there.
