Closure for a Family--- they never gave up,and neither did the police -

Long before this blog came into existence we had a photo posted on our original Verdun Connections site of Sharon Prior a girl who had gone missing and was found dead. Her killer never found...........but the Police never gave up, and here is a bit of a update on their new findings. ( I first saw this news article on George McCraes Point Saint Charles site ....so thanks to George for always keeping Sharon in our thoughts)

Here is a link to the News Item: https://wchstv.com/news/local/wva-mans-body-being-exhumed-after-canadian-authorities-say-he-raped-killed-teen-in-75-04-21-2023 .........Hopefully this helps to bring some closure for Sharons Mom and family who Never Gave up on Sharon's memory. and kudos again to the police for also not giving up.
