When beloved family patriarch, Gary Ferris went missing, his family looked everywhere on their

property until they came across something horrifying. It's a homicide.

Absolutely. The blame game in this family went round and round. This is Blood is Thicker,

the Ferris Wheel. I don't see how anyone can look at this story and think they were happy.

Amen. The journey The journey of the last 25 years has really tested my faith. Palm Sunday

I'm has really tested in my faith.

Palm Sunday, 1990, I'm in my choir robe at the back of my church, where I still sing in the choir today.

This glorious music is playing.

The church is full.

Everyone is singing.

It's this joyful procession.

And the last thing I expected was to have the church secretary come to me and put her hand on my arm and say,

you have a phone call.

And that's when my heart started to pound because I thought something's wrong, really wrong.

And it was my father on the phone.

And the first thing he said to me is that Nancy and Richard have been killed.

And he said someone killed them.

This happy young couple with everything to live for, with no enemies, with no reason

that anyone in the world should want to take their lives. And right before she died, she drew

this message in her own blood. By his body, there's the shape of a heart in the letter you.

Love you.
