Ah - the article's been updated since I posted it. Now it says:
"The grandmother of Lucas called me and asked me would I be interested in helping her find her grandson. And I said I would, but I'd like to talk to the daddy or the momma. She wound up getting her son in touch with me, Jonathan, and I explained to him what I did."
So it sounds like the grandmother is JH's mother, not EG's mother. Marshburn also mentioned Kelli Bordeaux in the update.
