    My Son is Missing!

    Hello all, this is trying time for me and my family. My son disappeared this morning. He was travelling from Christchurch (JeffinNZ's part of the world) to meet his mother at a small town airport (Blenheim) and never arrived. They were supposed catch a ferry and drive to Auckland where he was to live. He is now officially missing some 19 hours after last contact in which he sent a text to say he was going to sleep on the side of the road near a river. That was just after midnight and it's now 7 pm. His mobile still receives but he doesn't respond. It doesn't sound good and I do fear for the worst. Hold thumbs for him folks.

    The police should be able to use the phone company to locate the phone as long as it's active.
    Praying for him.

It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. -----Ronald Reagan

    Thank you all for your kindness. I'm hoping the police will attempt to locate his phone. Lets hope there is a less ominous explanation for his disappearance. But I am very worried!
