A Bronx woman has fulfilled a promise to her late mother by finding her long-lost sister after nearly six decades.
Juana Ayala says it wasn’t easy finding her sisters once they were separated in Puerto Rico in 1960.  She says with only a black-and-white photo, a birthdate and a name, they made their mother's dream come true.
"We are going to have a big family reunion on Saturday," Ayala says.
She says the sisters talked about children, grandchildren and other extended family.
The sisters’ reunion was 57 years in the making.
