In the summer of 2019, I announced that I was relocating, leaving Michigan.

The state I've called home my entire life, so we could settle in Georgia.

Our move was a byproduct of my husband's job with an Atlanta-based company.

And one of the first questions people asked me is, will you still cover Michigan cases?

So if you're on Facebook or Instagram, you can follow Missing in Michigan where we have a listing

and while there is movement in his case, and it's quite likely that foul play was involved,

his family, particularly his daughter, continues to advocate and push for answers.
