Anniversary of disappearance.

She was very depressed and sad, the illnesses she suffered from left her like this and perhaps we will never hear from her again. Such a beautiful woman.
rest in peace

I was a child in Eddyville when this happened. I lived two doors down from David in the apartments. We moved out of there in about 2000/2001 so I don't remember Sonya, but David was certainly a man of a different breed. My brother and I were always slightly creeped out by him. I will be reaching out to her children and any family/ neighbors after the first of the year to get the interviews started and hopefully by bringing new attention, we can bring Sonya home.
