Do You Know Me?
I belong to a little girl who now is all grown up
I have held her tears
for many many years
You see one day she was taken from her family so dear
And made to live with someone who anyone would fear
When she first was kidnapped I helped her fall asleep
But it was so hard every night to listen to her weep
She is all grown up now
But her Christmas wish remains
For one more chance to be held close
By those who loved her so
Maybe they are searching for her too
She has such beautiful eyes of blue
She has a happy spirit that has never left her heart
She believes she got this from her family who taught her how to love
She is so determined
To find her way back home
And have a chance to say
She always held them in her heart
And wished they were never ripped apart
Known Details:
Kidnapped in the early to mid 1960s
Blue eyes
Brown Hair
Used to dream all the time of a brown house
Flag staff walk way
Swing set in the back yard
The stuffed Kitten above may have been from before I was kidnapped
Had glow in the dark eyes
Had a bell in his tail
My mom used to sing to me
One song that I remember is
Down in the Valley: Link to this song

All she wants is to be reunited with her family for Christmas, it’s been a long, long time.
Do You Recognize Her?

Earlier today I received a comment on yet another missing person case where a child is likely not receiving attention since she disappeared on October 7, 2009. It was as a result of my post yesterday on Jahmeshia Connor, age 12, whose body was found in an alley on Monday. “There is a girl missing right now in Aurora and I watched her parents put up a flyer at the dollar store in the ghetto. (I work about 3 blocks away and went there on lunch). I don’t think she is getting much attention either. She is mexican.”
I am hoping by posting the information on Marissa Ann Benson, someone will come forward with information that could help with this case. The parents are doing everything to find their child. Please take a moment and pass this information along in your community or on your websites.

A message on FACEBOOK from Luke Durbin’s mother. May news of Luke’s whereabouts be the gift to the one who gave him birth. There is no worse feeling than being separated from your child and not knowing.
Tomorrow is Luke’s 23rd birthday and the thought of another birthday without Luke here fills me with dread and anguish. He should be celebrating with his family and friends. Luke loved it when his birthday fell on a weekend…
Time does not heal, it just compounds my utter desperation to find my child. Very few moments of a day go by without my thoughts turning to Luke. I constantly wonder what he would be doing if he was here. So much can happen in three and a half years. I hope wherever he is that he knows how much he is loved and missed by so many people.
The last three and a half years would have been so much harder without the support and compassion from old friends and new. To know that others care so much about my beautiful son means so much.
Please pass Luke’s Facebook group on to your friends or his websiite www.findluke.com which has been updated. I hope eventually the person/people who know something about Luke’s disappearance cannot live with their conscience any longer and come forward.
Thank you to everyone of you for your kindness and compassion.
With heartfelt thanks
Nicki

On the night Luke went missing he was wearing brown suede loafers, blue jeans, a black shirt, a reversible plum/grey top (pictured below)
Luke had everything going for him; he is an attractive, intelligent, sociable, witty young man. He had a good job, his pride and joy was his guitar and his very shiny, brand new motorbike.
Luke had ambitions to travel and to save enough money to make a recording of the music that he composed.
