Disappeared for 10 years: her mother still hopes to see her again
June 17, 2008 | 08:37
Ten years after the disappearance of her daughter Stéphanie, Lorraine Cyr still holds out hope of hugging her again one day.
Stéphanie Cyr has been missing since June 5, 1988. She was 18 years old. One evening, she did not return to the family home, then located in the Saint-Basile district of Edmundston. Since then, her relatives have had no news of her.
“I have a feeling she’s still alive. Every time someone brings up the possibility that she might be dead and suggests I grieve to move on, a little inner voice cries out to me that it’s impossible. I believe in the maternal instinct, it’s very strong,” says Lorraine Cyr.
The mother describes her daughter as a child with a heart of gold, very generous, a little good-natured. She is aware that Stephanie experienced many problems in her childhood and adolescence. Very tall and stronger than her classmates, she was the victim of teasing in the schoolyard. Moreover, with the agreement of her parents and the doctor who followed her, she was withdrawn from school benches before entering secondary school. Later, she also had drinking problems.
“Despite everything, Stephanie had a great relationship with her father, her brother and me. There was a lot of love between us. That’s what makes things even more difficult,” says Lorraine Cyr.
In the past, the family participated in programs Retrouvailles, by Claire Lamarche, in vain. The hope reached its height when in 2001, when Mrs. Cyr thought she saw her daughter in a television report on prostitution in Montreal. But the investigation and all the steps that followed came to nothing.
In the first years following the disappearance, Lorraine Cyr also claims to have received several telephones, where no one spoke on the end of the line. She is convinced it was her daughter.
“I thought for a long time that she was under someone’s control and that she couldn’t communicate with us. Maybe today she is free, but she doesn’t know how to come back, ”she raises.
“One thing is certain, I am still waiting for him with open arms. I won’t ask her questions, I won’t judge her. All I wish is to be able to look her in the eye and tell her in person how much I love her,” she added.
The latter adds that all the rest of the family ardently wishes to see Stephanie again. His uncles, his aunts, his cousins and his cousins, and his little brother Tommy in particular. His father is unfortunately no longer in this world. “My husband died suddenly in 2003. He suffered a cardiac arrest after watching another Claire Lamarche show. He had cried so much that night. He told me that he would give his life so that Stephanie would come back and I could be happy again, ”she says.
Her voice filled with emotion, she confides that life has not spared her over the past decade. She notably fought cancer, lost her husband. “But there is no worse ordeal than the disappearance of Stephanie,” she assures. The lady now lives in Grand Falls.
The Edmundston Police Force contacted him recently to tell him that they had not closed Stéphanie’s file. Moreover, since the sad anniversary, the police have started circulating photos of the young missing and a composite portrait to show what she could look like today. “After all these years, there are people who think we found him, others who don’t remember this story. It’s good, I think, to talk about her again and to refresh memories, especially as the holidays approach. People travel. They may be able to meet her somewhere, you never know, ”concluded Lorraine Cyr.
