There is a great deal of excitement, emotion, questions, sadness and relief among
the 29 FSAR team members surrounding this announcement. Over the past 2
years, we have not given up searching for Gerry. Members were involved
in Largay searches as recently as the past 2 weekends and we have (had)
another scheduled for the 25th. We are all VERY interested in learning the details (today at 1 p.m.) of the location and details of this find.
Hat's off to the entire volunteer SAR community in Maine. What an outstanding group of dedicated and skilled and hard working volunteers that have supported this find that has finally brought closure for the Largay family.
