My wife, son, and daughter never came back from their trip — 40 years later, I found a note that said, “If you’re reading this, it’s time for you to learn THE TRUTH.”
My wife, Clara, took our daughter and son on a trip to visit her sister, who lived near the ocean.
I had a ton of work at the time, so they went without me.
But a few hours later, Clara’s sister, Gwen, called me and said they had never made it to her house.
We even called the police.
Clara and the kids had simply vanished.
When the police began searching for them, all they found was their empty car abandoned on a bridge over a river.
The car was damaged.
The search went on for years.
Divers searched the river again and again.
The police had countless theories, but the most likely one was that the car had crashed on the bridge and the impact had thrown them into the water, where the current had carried them away.
Two years later, they were legally declared DEAD.
After that, I didn’t know how to go on living.
I never even touched my son’s or daughter’s rooms.
It was as if part of me believed they would come back one day.
Forty years passed, and my heart still ached.
