A NEW DECADE

2010
As some co-workers and I talked about it being the beginning of a new decade, I realized that a decade has also gone by.  A decade of mourning and waiting for some information that would tell me what happened to my beloved Zebb.   What happened that cold January night 10 years ago?  What happened that took Zebb away from me, his sister, his niece and the rest of his family, that have since been longing for some news.
Though the world and my life have continued on as if notghing had ever happened, a huge part of me remains in the year 2000.  I never got to see him graduate from college or to get married and have children.  His sister, who thought she was his second mother, hasbeaten herself up, feeling that she should have protected him from whatever it was that happened to him, even though she had a family of her own and didn't live close by.  His niece barely remembers her uncle who, by the way, adored her.  His other 2 nieces never had the chance to know him at all and depend on our stories to be able to feel a connection to him.  The rest of the family each had their own relationship with Zebb and mourn the loss of it in their own way.  AND

  1. hi. I remember that day that we heard about his disappearence. I remember the 10 year newspaper article. Everytime I see this new show ad about those 2 women that solve cold cases on TV. Maybe you can contact themand they could help. I think the show is probably a set up, but maybe it can bring national attention to finding him and maybe bringing him home. If you need to get people to put pressure on them to check it out, I will be willing to assist in a letter or phone call campaign. email address is llllizlll@live.com.
