ONTARIO COLD CASE: News of found human remains brings mom to her knees
Thanks for the link, rbbm including the Ws thread for D Trask, the son of M.Trask, the woman referenced in the article.
“I’ve got people saying, ‘Maybe he started a new life,’” Smith said. “He didn’t start a new life, he told me he was going to jump off the falls.”

So now, Smith is left feeling what she calls “ambiguous loss,” marked by a lack of closure or understanding.

“The ambiguous part just kills you,” Smith said.


She has also learned that she is not the only one going through the same thing.

“A woman named Maureen Trask from Waterloo told me about it,” Smith said. “Her son went missing three years ago and they found him in Temagami. She is a huge advocate.”

And while Smith has managed to keep some form of normalcy in her life, she shudders every time there is a report of human remains being found anywhere in Niagara."
