Joanne's parents and 2 sisters are deceased. Joannes only surviving sibling, wants nothing to do with anything, concerning her missing sister. I'm the last person, on this earth, looking for her remains. You can't find someone, if no one is looking!
30 years now, I've been looking for my favorite aunt Jo. I know, this is my last ditch effort, to bring her home. I pray for resolution for Jo & myself...the others, who are already in heaven with her, waiting for us. My 26 year old daughter, who has Joanne's middle name, Elaine, passed.in 2019. I believe they are together now ,waiting for the rest of us....

Things are heating up again, in my Aunt Joanne's disappearance! It will be 50 years in 2024, since I last talked to her.
There will be a Mass, at St. Columba Cathedral for her.
December 27, 2024.
Class of 71 is invited!
The police have until then to bring Gary Brancho to justice and hopefully, recover Jo's remains.
Sincerely,
Debb Burkey
