My friend would have been 47 today...if she hadn't been kidnapped
And presumably murdered by some piece of scum 16 years ago. We haven't seen her since. Please keep Paige Renkoski in your thoughts today.

Happy Birthday, Paige. I miss you.

I cannot imagine having had a friend, or relative disappear like that! My thoughts are with you and for Paige. Such a loss for everyone who loved and love her still.

:hug:

4. Thanks, aA
You'd think it would get easier each year but it doesn't. Especially since the case has never been solved.

I appreciate the :loveya:

PS Talked to J&K about a get together, what does 2-24 look like for you? PM me when you get a chance -- thanks.

5. Is that the one you posted about where they found her car
on the side of the highway? I remember your story.
I will be thinking about her and her family.

8. I'm very sorry to hear about this
I can't imagine the pain her family and friends have gone through starting 16 years ago.

Paige is in my thoughts.

10. I believe you posted the story of her disappearance before?
So very, very sad.
I hope there is closure to this, soon.

14. I'm so sorry, 1goblue
I remember reading something you posted about her some time ago. I think I vaguely remember the case, too.

BTW -- I don't know if this matters to you, but re: you setting up some kind of meetup on the 24th, that's the day of the MDP convention.

16. Thanks, everyone, for your nice messages
Paige was a vibrant, fun-loving person and I know she'd be happy that you've acknowledged her birthday. Wherever she is now, I'm sure there's a party :party:

It's nice to have a guardian angel. And fellow DUers who care. Thanks again.

24. My sincere condolences
what a tragedy - that she was murdered, and there was no justice for her.

Happy Birthday, Paige. :grouphug:
