Story with a TWIST!!!





Bodies may be couple missing
for 50 years
The Canadian Press(Oct 23, 2006)
Joan Van Mierlo long ago gave up any hope
of knowing what happened to her parents
who vanished half a century ago while out boating at the
family's cottage.
Now it has all come back.
OPP divers have found a boat, outboard motor and
human remains 26 metres below the surface of Trout
Lake, a few kilometres east of the family's hometown of
North Bay.
Recent media reports revisiting the disappearance of Allan
and Margaret Campbell on May 29, 1956, spawned
new tips that aided the search.
"After all this time ... it's such a surreal kind of thing,"
Van Mierlo said from her home in Winnipeg.
"People keep using that word 'closure,'" she said.
"Right now it feels like a reopening of something very
painful.
Eventually this is going to be a wonderful thing for
me, but right now I'm going to deal with it one
day at a time."
The youngest of four daughters, Van Mierlo,
now 60, was just 10 when her parents went
missing.
She went to live with her eldest sister who was
married with her own children at the time.
Van Mierlo was young enough to be shielded from
the many rumours that swirled around the
small community:
Did her parents drown?
Was it an accident or murder?
Or did they simply abandon their family?
The remains must still be tested and positively
identified.
But police said the exact cause of the accident
may never be known.

STRANGE OR WHAT?

Too many missing people. Too many BAD relationships. Too many errors in judgement. If the infomation on this site prevents 1 mistake it has accomplished something.
