Sunday evening, dinner got cold.
At seven, I called Daniel.
No answer.
I didn’t know I had just photographed four people I would never see again.
At 7:30, I called our oldest son.
Just ringing.fin
By 8:00, I was annoyed.
By 9:00, I was scared.
At 10:15, I called the police.
The next morning, Daniel’s truck was found near the marina.
The empty boat trailer was still attached.
His wallet was inside the truck.
So were two jackets.
The next morning, Daniel’s truck was found near the marina.
The boat was found several hours later on the opposite shore, completely empty and badly damaged.
Search teams spent weeks combing the area with divers, boats, helicopters, and volunteers walking the shoreline.
They came up empty.
No sign of Daniel, and no sign of the boys.
Search teams spent weeks combing the area.
Eventually, the official conclusion became the only answer anybody could give me.
