A World War I soldier writes a love note to his pregnant wife, puts it in a bottle and drops it in the English Channel. Decades later a fisherman finds it and delivers the message to the daughter the soldier never got to meet. Although this heart-warming tale is fiction, it is based on real-life events.

charming short story

Stumbled on this as I was looking for more by this narrator. Charming short story with a hint of magical realism.
