VICTORIA

“Eloise was a loving, caring and kind little girl who was adored by her 2 siblings as well as her parents.  Future relationships were denied when she disappeared from the family home in 1976 and we can only imagine how Eloise would have grown up.  What would be her achievements, her career path and what possibilities lay ahead for her. We are left to ponder these situations,  what would life have been like if she remained safe in her bed? Past students who attended Beaumaris PS feel much the same and have expressed their dismay warmly remembering her in much the same way.  
Particularly for me, Eloise was very special.  Born the day before I turned 21, she was the best birthday I could have hoped for and I was looking forward to playing a significant role in her future. Coinciding with my birthday on 9th October, the 8th October remains a very sad day as I recall the excitement of her birth and think about what may have happened to her that evening.”

"Lorrin is a daughter, Lorrin is a mum, Lorrin is a best friend.  Lorrin matters because she matter to so many people, and she was this amazing human being that deserves an answer. What happened to her and deserves justice for finding out what actually happened to her.  Despite everything that has been said by the police, despite all the assumptions, and the stigma, and everything else that has kinda gone on before this point, we need to know, someone out there must know something. 

This has gone on for so long, for 13 years. It too long to wait for answers. 
Lorrin’s parents are getting older. Things are happening. You know, my grandparents, they're desperate for answers, and I just plead to everyone. 
Lorrin Matters, Lorrin Matters, every single missing person matters, but for me, you know, I just want to give my grandparents closure and give myself some closure and to really find out what happened to her and bring her home and lay to rest, if that's what that means."

"Warren matters like any human being on the planet has the right to live peaceful and live their days out and that was stolen away from him in his middle years, he did not deserve what happen to him.  Something was thrust upon him in the most horrific manner when he went on a mornings hike, and the tragic of it is really extreme I believe.  He was a special person to some many people, so well loved. People have said he would light up the room when he ever walked in, great sense of humor, wonderful personality, he was a business owner that was loved by his staff, the staff use to always say he treats us so equally you would never known he was the boss. The children love him the extended family loved him. He just had special traits of a human being.  We all have the right to live peaceful and to have our death when it comes acknowledge and to have a love ones around, he died alone, he died alone out there. And it really breaks my heart.  "

"Owen matters to me as a big brother and as someone who inspired me when I was younger to play the drums and to pursue creativity.

He has been missing for a long time and I wish that I had new memories, photos and experiences with my brother. 
Owen's memories are now almost legends and stories from the past that I hold onto.
