Friends and family, along with members of the small Dutch community, have been assisting with the search for missing Dutch tourist Mary-Anne Goossens, last seen on June 17th, but they are relatively few in number and the areas to be covered are large. Your help would be most appreciated.
Search teams are heading out from the Hotel Bajamar on a daily basis to cover different areas in Nerja, Maro and Frigiliana. If anyone can spare even just a little time to help with the searches this would be fantastic.
Tracing the movements of Mary-Anne since she arrived in Nerja could be vital in finding her or at least narrowing down the search area. Grab/print a copy of the photo of Mary-Anne and ask among your friends, workmates and in local bars if anyone can remember seeing her, it could jog a memory.
Check any snaps you have taken, get friends or visitors to check their holiday pictures to see if, by chance, Mary-Anne appears in any of them. It could help find her.
Anything at all that you can do to help find Mary-Anne would be most appreciated by her friends and family. If you can help with the daily searches or would like to know more about other ways in which you can help, please contact Fritz Korten (son of Mary-Anne and currently in Nerja to coordinate local searches) via 0031 651582068 (email [email protected]).
