We are devastated to share that after nine and a half long months, Eva’s body has been recovered from the Clark Fork River in Missoula. Our hearts broke with this news as we held out hope, however slim, for a different outcome. While the coming months will be difficult, we are certain that this news will eventually lead to some closure for our family and for those close to Eva. We will share news about a celebration of life service for Eva at a later date and ask that you respect our privacy at this time.
Words are inadequate in times such as these, but we are forever grateful for the support and kindness that we received and continue to receive from extended family, friends, neighbors and the greater community. We know that many who we have never met across the region devoted time and resources to search for Eva and shared prayers and well wishes for our family across these months. For this, we remain grateful. We would like to specially thank the Missoula Police Department, the Missoula County Sheriff’s Department, Missoula Fire Department, Missoula County Search and Rescue, Life Guard, K9 Task Force, and other agencies in Montana and beyond. These organizations were steadfast in the search for Eva and their support for our family.
Please keep missing people and their friends and family in your thoughts and prayers.
Warmly,
Dave
