From the first time Our family contacted Cynthia from lostnmissing she has been a great comfort to our family, no matter what time of day she was always there for us. Our search for our son came to a tragic end and I don't know how we could have held up if not for the help of lostnmissing.They made missing person flyers and helped our family get billboards(at no cost to our family)thru out the Boston area. Lostnmissing did not stop when Dennis was found they have continued to be a source of strength to our family thru these very difficult days.Our family do not have enough words to express how much we have been comforted and helped by Cynthia and all the staff at lostnmissing.With our thanksEd bushard

My stepdad went missing in August. He is 90 and had dementia. Cyndi and her team were so helpful putting up flyers and sending emails to businesses in the area. They also did a national listing for us. I would not have known what to do. My stepdad was seen many times and finally he passed about 300 yards from his home. He is all healed and well again. I would recommend using this site and it's overwhelming knowledge of how to help with a missing lived one!

I have a friend that is affiliated with this organization and I was very eager to learn more. I am now a strong advocate for them. We assist families in getting the word out into the community that a loved one is lost and missing. We create posters, have community events, and use social media.

I am the father of Christina Whittaker. She has been missing for over 3 years now. Cynthia Caran and her organization Lost N Missing has helped me and my wife Cindy in our search for Christina so much. They have done everything from organizing rallies to designing and sending us fliers. And has paid for us hotel rooms while we were out searching for Christina. There isn't much help out there for missing adults and their families. This organization helps no matter how old your missing loved one is. They are truly a blessing to us and many other families and we appreciate everything they have done very much.

I absolutely love Lost N Missing, Cynthia Caran, amd all of the other awesome workers. I have a missing daughter, Christina Whittaker. They have helped us so much in our search. From designing and sending us new fliers, to paying for our hotels and organizing events for s. They are truly a godsend to us families with missing people. And there is so little help out there. Especially if your missing loved one is adult. They don't care if it's and adult or child. They reach out and try to help all families without descrimination. We am very blessed to have them on our side. Thank you for all you do.

LostNMissing Inc. was instrumental in our search efforts for my missing niece, Savannah Spurlock. I was unsure how to go about raising awareness. They got an initial Facebook group set up, made missing posters, and donated items for our live Vigil. Along with helping raise awareness, their team gave me encouragement and advice all along the way as we dealt with trolls, scammers, media, etc. I was able to ultimately take the lead of the missing FB page, but they were there to support us throughout. I could not have done it without them! We were able to keep public pressure hot in my nieces case. Sadly, the outcome was not as we hoped. But even through putting my niece to rest peacefully, LostNMissing has been by our side all along the way. We are forever grateful.

Cynthia Caron could have not been more helpful and caring in our search for our son. We live 1450 miles from where our son went missing in New Hampshire. Caron and her friend drove across the state to post pictures and talk to the police on our behalf, on one of the coldest days in January. She contacted several sources of news media and had success where we did not. They provided many sources of information to aide in our own searches. During our many email correspondences she expressed sincere concern for our son and us. Fortunately our son was found in another state and we are very thankful for the LostNFound's participation in locating him. We believe that the social media posts they had the technical abilities to create were fantastic and they were very helpful and motivating. Anyone who is put in a situation such as ours should contact them for their assistance.

When my granddaughter went missing on Feb 25, 2016, someone put me in contact with Cynthia of Lost n Missing. She was so supportive. She asked a lot of questions. She told us who who we needed to contact and she talked with others. She made posters and graphics. Through this time she regularly checks in with us, the support is amazing. As we have received leads, which have gone nowhere Cynthia help to follow up and helps us get over that. She has dealt with the troublemakers. I don't know how we would be able to have gotten through all of this time if not for her guidance, direction and support. We hope and pray to find my granddaughter and I'm grateful to have someone we can trust and rely on.

My son was missing for 6 months. With the assistance of missing persons I was able to share my son's information with thousands of people. As more people saw the posters, more leads came in and we were able to recover him alive and now the process of healing and helping him to rebuild his life. Missing persons constantly stayed in contact with us, encouraged us and gave us hope. They assisted with law enforcement resources and other resources to achieve my family's goal of finding our loved one. Glory be to God for this great organization. We are truly thankful.

My son became involved with drugs when he was eleven years old. He birth family had a history of addiction for at least the past two generations. A series of heartbreaking factors led to a perfect storm. He became an addict almost as soon as he was introduced to methamphetamines. He became involved with the juvenile law system within two months of his first use. I was very naïve. I didn't understand the amount of pain, confusion, and darkness that happens in a family when your child is an addict. With each arrest, my son became more and more empowered in his lifestyle. I felt all alone. There was nobody for me to turn to. Someone finally invited me to join TAPU online, and from there, I was introduced to LostNissing, Inc. From the first five seconds on the phone with them, I felt like my son mattered, my other two young children mattered, and I mattered. No one judged or blamed us. They had resources that I didn't have. They were able to give me other sites and phone numbers to follow through on. They distributed posters. Just as important, they took all of my information for a database that might help save other children from pushers and sex traffickers some day. I never felt alone when they were working with me. The family is just as important as the missing with these guys. It is impossible to put a price tag on what they give to families during those moments of need. I wish that I would have found them sooner.

When I contacted Cynthia we were frantic. Our 20 month old niece had been kidnapped and was reportedly across state lines within an hour. We needed flyers made that we could use for media and social media posts that would catch attention to all those who seen it. I had them in roughly an hour of asking. Talk about quick service! When your hands are tied and you can't do much having someone practically drop everything to give you the tools to at least get her face out there means EVERYTHING! Thank you so much for responding and acting so quickly. Positive note: we had her back in 5 days time. She was indeed in another state and I know these flyers helped us get her home SAFE!

I have been helping a man search for his missing sister, Tammy Sue Clements who went missing in 1980 at age 15. This gentleman is uncertain how to navigate these terrible waters. I reached out to MANY organizations with what info I had- trying to get this little lost girl out there where her voice could be heard. She had not even had a missing persons report filed- ever. The organization Lostnmissing was the fist organization to help me- to help us I should say. Through them Tammy had her first flier made, and we were finally able to start posting her to many different pages. We had great difficulty in getting the NCIC number so that this little girl could be listed at sites such as doenetwork and namus. Lostnmissing not only took our report, but helped us gain the ncic number from a small town police department who were reluctant to give it to family. Their advocacy for the lost has helped us immensely and inspired me to continue working with families, knowing I have them to aid me.

This non profit is a blessing to the Missing and endangered in our country. 24 hours a day, state reps are on social media with any and all information they have to help families and the lost find their way back home. The dedication of these people, is above and beyond. My own daughter volunteered, who passed away in May. She worked endless hours posting to help families, identify John and Jane Doe's, and those missing for years. The agony of families, cases long forgot by police, and these families need closure and peace, and these folks with Lostnmissing wont stop till every lost soul is found, and closure is final.

From creating FB pages to identifying resources for billboards, this organization made me feel as if I was the only client served and all along held my heart with genuine concern and empathy. Even after my son's remains were recovered, they checked in to see how I was doing. You have no idea how simple kindness can help a grieving heart. Thank you LostNMissing: you provided resources, hope and kindness in my darkest hour.

When we alerted the news about my sister's disappearance, Cynthia from LostNMissing contacted me right away. They had created missing posters, and contacted me to ask if we would like the story published the story on their site. Cynthia collected the information needed to give a complete and accurate description and everyone from the organization were very compassionate, caring and helpful. They were prepared to do whatever it took to make sure the story was out there. The organization had many contacts available for us for news organizations and offered to help set up interviews. Cynthia offered a ton of great advice from searching to making public statements. She helped provide tips and potential leads to the police and was constantly searching for information leading to the recovery of my sister. The staff at LostNMissing created a facebook page to spread awareness and were vigilant in monitoring it for any leads. I can't thank them enough for their help, prayers, compassion and care. This is a truly wonderful group of people! Drew Bradshaw

This is a very important organization with an excellent team who cares about the missing and reacts promptly. We need more people like them in the world. I contacted the Sacramento Police and told them about my missing brother but they didn't do anything at all. They didn't at least follow their procedures of listing him as a missing person who is mentally disable and unable to feed himself with no where to sleep. lostnmissing got on the task and thanks to the team, we have found my brother. Thanks again Cynthia and April!

I can say the LostNMissing is an organization that helped us above and beyond. They are by far the most organized, detail oriented, and steadfast non profit that I had the pleasure of getting involved with. They just took the bull by the horns and did what needed to be done and for nothing in return. I cannot express how grateful we are that when the media, law enforcement and people let you down a total stranger walks in to lift your faith in humanity. At our lowest point in our lives Cynthia Caron came into it and gave us hope and showed us compassion in our situation. I would highly recommend their site to anyone that is in dire need of help.

The people at LostNMissing, Inc are incredibly kind and helpful. When my nephew was missing, they made a poster that i could share on facebook, helped me through the registration and then created a facebook page dedicated to finding him. They also shared the poster and page and began registering him as missing on NamUs and other reputable sited dedicated to finding missing persons. As I was sharing the facebook page, and saw my friends liking and sharing both the page and poster, I received a message that my nephew had made contact with a friend... a few hours later I spoke to him and found him to be safe and sound.

All the lovely people who work for LostNMissing were wonderfully communicative and emotionally supportive throughout.

Thank-you, with all my heart!!!

Dear Friends of the Lost and Missing Organization,


There are no words to express my family’s gratitude for the guidance and support you gave us throughout

a very painful time. Without the support of the Lost and Missing, we could not have accomplished what

we did in such a short amount of time while trying to find Vicente.

Everything you did for us is deeply appreciated. The postings to the Facebook page dedicated to Vicente,

including the beautiful video, raised awareness, were extremely informative to all viewers, and kept his

spirit alive. You did an outstanding job in your communications and in giving us strength during this

difficult time.


We cannot praise enough the Lost and Missing organization and the wonderful people I met who

are dedicating their time and resources to help families such as mine in desperate and heartbreaking

situations. Your organization brought immeasurable comfort and strength to my family.

This sad experience has raised our awareness of this organization and its miraculous power to help

families such as ours survive an unfortunate crisis. The goodness and generosity of the folks from Lost

and Missing who worked with us has brought us much peace and comfort and will remain in our hearts

forever. Thank you for holding us together.


With heartfelt gratitude,

The Mundo Family

over 30 years ago due to mental illness our mother divorced our father, left 5 children bedhind, left the state of mass and moved to california . over the years on rare occasions we heard from her for a brief time. no one has heard from her in about 15 years. the family decided to try and find out if she was still alive or had passed awary since she would be turning 76 years old this year. our search for our mother lead us to the lostnmissing organization. they guided us in the process of filing reports with the police and other organizations that would help in the search for her. they keep in frequent contact with me on updates and gave emotional support with a very difficult and emotional process. i am happy to say we did find her. alive and well. she has her own life and wants no part of ours but's that's ok. our goal was to find out if she was alive , what condition she was in, and to offer her help if she wanted it. we found her. we were told she was homeless, living from shelter to shelter but happy and at piece. she chose not to contact us. we can live with the knowledge that she is alive, well and living the life she wants. we can now move forward with our lives. we are so grateful for the assistance that lostnmissing and their partners were able to give in our quest to find our mother. thankfully yours. the wellman family.

On September 17th 2014 my sister went missing untill November 4th 2014.She was last seen in California and we all live in Utah. During this time we were extremely hopeless,not knowing how to find her. The lostNMissing organization contacted us with a desire to help,and their concern, hard work and knowledge of the proper procedures available , brought to us such unbelievable comfort.They provided for us a missing persons poster and valuable information to help us find my sister. Cynthia Caron, personally contacted me to attain the proper information to get my sister into the NamUS system. She explained to us what this organization is all about and how it can help us with our lost loved one. She also put us in contact with someone in California that was able to do hands on searching for my sister and who was ultimately responsible for finding her and returning her home. LostNMissing has been a priceless advocate to us,and we thank God for them.

I am the Mother of 22 yr. old Tamara J. Holcknecht. She was murdered in 2007. If not for Cynthia Caron and LostNMissing, I would still be at a dead end. With their assistance, we've reached many people, and have gotten several tips on my Daughter's case. I am so thankful to God for them. They could have turned me away because my Daughter is not lost or missing, but instead, jumped right in and went way beyond just helping me. I wrote Cynthia for advise and have gotten more attention to my Daughter's cold, but still open, case. .. For this I am eternally thankful. LostNMissing gives HOPE and utilizes every means possible to bring comfort and closure to so many families who would otherwise have no where else to turn. Thank you Cynthia Caron and LostNMissing.

My worst nightmare began on 6/22/14, when my beloved husband and wonderful father of our daughter, Lilly left the house and was missing for over a week. I got a call on 6/30/14 that a body has bound been found and 24 hrs. later, it was positively identified as my husband. As soon as Lost'N'Missing became involved, I received tremendous help and support. I was provided with guidance and compassion during our time searching for my husband. Even after he has been found, I rec'd beautiful messages from Lost'N' Missing. I cannot even explain/express my gratitude for this organization. I felt my life was a lifetime movie, it still feels that way, but their continued words of encouragement give me strength to go on. Lost'N'Missing is a great organization and without their help, I don't know where I'd be today ~ my state of mind became quickly disrupted and I couldn't function properly trying to complete normal daily tasks.

When my wife went missing, I was devastated. I didn't know what to do. I found LostNMissing after searching on Google. Before LostNMissing I had no one eles to talk to or help me through this time. When I contacted LostNMissing, They reply quickly and kindly. Cynthia from LostNMissing talked to and helped me through all this. She guided me during this time with understanding and kindness. She is an angel. She gave me hope when I felt so lost. My wife is now safe and back home. I just can't thank them enough for their work. The Greatest

My brother was missing since 2-12-14. I contacted the lost and missing organization with a poster of him and information. They responded immediately and help generate new posters and posted on their facebook site and also put my brother on namus.gov. Cynthia and Linda were so caring and wonderful and went out of their way to help get the word out about my missing brother. I'm so thankful for all they did for our family and all the other family's they are helping. And with their help I'm glad to report my brother has been found safe. Thank all of you again for your dedication, big hearts and all you guys do god bless you all Sincerely, Melissa:)

Cynthia Caron came into my life on Feb. 6, 2013, just 3 days after my Mother In-Law, Carla Ruth Reyes, went missing. We as a family were so distraught, with NO where to turn but LostNMissing, Inc. showed us empathy, compassion and most of all honesty! They assisted with fliers, communication, support and even opened a blog to raise more awareness of Carla's MISSING status. To say they went the extra mile would be an understatement.

In March of 2013, I decided to offer my services as an advocate for MISSING persons. It has been cathartic for me to be able to help other families in need. I will continue to Volunteer for LostNMissing, Inc. for years to come, as this organization always puts the family first. I am proud to represent this amazing organization as a Volunteer.

Unfortunately, to date (feb 2014) Carla is still Missing, but we will NEVER give up HOPE until she found and is back home with us. Maya Brand, CA Admin and Supportive Counselor

I am the parent of Sean SIDI age 19, who vanished from San Francisco, CA May 21, 2013. LosNMissing has been of invaluable help in he search for my son. In the world of missing persons, where there are few resources for families of missing persons 18 years and older, LostNMissing fills that much needed void, providing support to families with missing loved ones, with professionalism, dedication, compassion and humanity. Among other things, LostNMissing located and paid for a billboard in San Francisco, featuring my son and 4 other missing young men, provided beautifully designed fliers and digital themes to raise awareness of the search for my son (and 4 others from San Francisco) LostNMissing truly goes the extra mile, even contacting a web master at one of the locations of a sighting of my son. One truly gets the impression that LostNMissing (and Cynthia Caron) cares for each and every missing person. I will be forever grateful to LostNMissing and Cynthia Caron for their help in the search for my son, Sean Sidi, (who remains missing as of Feb 2014).

I would like to say, I love this website and organization. I love the spiritual poems, they keep me alive inside after loosing my 16 yr. old daughter last October, it really helps me cope. Thank you Dave.

My story goes something like this. Last year in October, I received a devastating phone call that changed my life forever. You see, my daughter went missing. The results of her missing were not happy results. My point is, this organization reached out to myself and other family members. They had gotten all the information together to get her into the national database for missing persons. They certainly worked fast and hard. I appreciate everything they did for me. I couldn't have done it without them.

I met the woman that started LostNMissing,Inc several years ago when we were searching for a missing child in upstate NY. Since that time, virtually thousands of missing people have been found. Unfortunately some of those people were found deceased. Even though they were not alive, the family members had closure. LostNMissing,Inc has grown by leaps and bounds because there are so many wonderful volunteers that have given themselves unselfishly to the cause. The positive reviews say it all. There will always be a few negative reviews from people that cannot be grateful or appreciate the fact that these people are volunteers, not paid professional. They are doing the best that they can. I am speaking from personal interaction with this organization. Thank you to everyone involved.

The Founder Cynthia Caron and her staff were Fantastic to us. They were there the whole time for us. They kept in touch and always asked if we needed anything. This Organization is an Absolute God send to anyone who uses there services to help find missing loved ones. We go through enough emotional roll coasters, but every time we needed something, LostNMissing were there. I am so happy it was LostNMissing who were there for us. I can't thank them enough for everything they did. I would Recommend LostNMissing for everyone whose loved one went missing. Let it be noted all people who work with LostNMissing are volunteers, they receive no compensation. This is because they care and love people. Thank you again LostNMissing. We love you folks.

I met Cynthia and LostNMissing when I became involved with missing persons on FaceBook. I found there is so much more to assisting families of the missing than just sharing information on Facebook. I decided that there was no way I would ever be as professional and knowledgeable as the LostNMissing organization. I choose to donate to them when I can and support them however I can. I personally have met a mother of a "lost" adult child. Cynthia and LostNMissing supported and assisted to a level that is beyond comprehension and the adult child was located safely!!!

This organization, completely NON-PROFIT, works tirelessly. I hope and PRAY they continue with their work. An AMAZING group, I would hope everyone would support them, I can't think of a better group to lend my support.

I have received continuing notices from LostnMissing relating to many cases of missing persons which I am always happy to receive. Their update system and the manner in which they support distressed families is most gracious. As a Non Profit Organisation they place a great amount of effort into the continuing wish of locating persons and hopefully to reconnect them. I feel that such organisations should continue to be supported as best is possible in both my professional and personal opinion. Many families have thankfully gained closure and regained the family members they were searching for due to these efforts and I hope this shall continue well into the future.

LostNMissing I have found to be an excellent missing persons service highly dedicated to finding the many missing persons noted. Always courteous to myself and interactions in relation to the notifications of information are clear and precise which I find extremely helpful. A proactive organisation that keeps the interests of families close to mind at all times.

As an individual that works within Humanitarian Affairs I greatly appreciate the work that is undertaken which itself must induce quite stressful times. Updated information is fluid and prompt. I would certainly place any recommendation of LostNMissing to any families or indeed individual searching for missing persons in a highly positive manner. Whilst operating this organization it uses some resources that are difficult to assist with for many but I would very much like to see the continuance and further building and I support fully the work undertaken.

In my professional view matters are dealt with in a Compassionate and truly caring manner always understanding of the needs of those they assist and to my knowledge have always given exemplary service. I look forward to further interactions and wish for every success in the future. I hope very much that further support will be given so that further extensions of their works can be made as needed.

It turned out I had seen this young man at the courthouse and kept my eye open for him and thought I saw him at a Burger King. Lost and Missing helped this family who were desperately looking for their son. Following this, I friend her fb page and have been copying and posting all of the missing cases she tiresly post day after day, year after year in the hopes someone will no something to help. I never in a million years would think I needed to call upon Cynthia to help me when our son went missing for several days. Cynthia was instramentel in bringing him to safety. She was able to call our son and help the police ping his call. He was at high risk of harm to himself at that given time. She was able to speak with him and help him emotionally. She has continued to support me in difficult times and given me great advice. For this my husband and I will ever be greatful. I would without hesitation highly reacomend LostNMissing.

Keep up the great work! Proud to be a part of the team that do all possible for the families of missing. Those who write references should only be those who either volunteer and have first hand knowledge of the work of the team or those families who have directly contacted your organization for assistance. By standers and internet sleuthing groups base their opinions from a distance and do not know first hand just how many families lives you've touched. It's also been rumored that another "competitor" has been fueling the negativity and it is clearly obvious they send the same people to go after families that you are already are working with. I find that in poor taste considering they too should have their work be for the missing person and not to bring fame upon themselves. That is what I've most admired from LNM. The work always comes first without bragging and huge media campaigns about the org. It is about the families and the missing people at LNM. Congrats on the 2013 Badge!

Lost N Missing has demonstrated distrust of a police investigation in which they were supposed to be "partnering" and have abused family members of a missing person so appallingly that the family had to publicly request that LnM remove themselves from the case.

And no, I'm not part of an "orchestrated" anything. I am an independent thinker who forms my own opinions based on the evidence available to me, and acts on those opinions regardless of what others are doing. If LnM is so paranoid as to believe that people have to be recruited to express their horror at the appalling actions of this organization, they are in deep denial.

On LnM's website, they claim that they partner with law enforcement. I find this interesting, when presently, both the president of this organization and the treasurer/board member are publically questioning the integrity of the police investigation into the murder of Jennifer Ramsaran. They must have found it a bit embarrassing when Jennifer's husband Ganesh -- the very man that LnM spent many hours defending publically as having an "airtight alibi" and having nothing to do with Jennifer's missing status has now been arrested for her murder. And...I find it interesting that LnM feels that it is part of their "mission" to defend the "innocence" of GR -- both before Jennifer's body was found, and even now after his arrest...how is that "partnering" with law enforcement?? Are they so arrogant as to believe that they know more than the fine men and women who have spent five months carefully investigating this crime? Do they really doubt the work of the medical examiner which led to GR's arrest?

Quite frankly, if Lost N Missing does not trust law enforcement, I would suggest it would be difficult for them to partner with law enforcement. I would doubt that law enforcement would welcome such partnership.

Secondly, Lost N Missing gushes about the love and compassion and support they extend to the family of missing persons. In the case of Jennifer Ramsaran, they continue to "support" the man who has been indicted for her murder. But their "love and compassion" has fallen far short with regard to Jennifer's grieving mother and father, Jennifer's sister, and Jennifers cousins, aunt, and other extended family. To these members of Jennifer's family -- they have been crass and insensitive. From inappropriate pm's to Jennifer's mother, to deleting comments made by Jennifer's family on Facebook (comments as innocuous as "my sister would never leave on her own"), to threatening to sue the family if negative reviews here on Great Non-profits were not removed (isn't that blackmail??), Cynthia Caron even stated in a public blog that she felt no pity for Jennifer's family.

Even after Jennifer's mother and sister have publically and politely requested that Lost N Missing remove themselves from Jennifer's case, LNM persists in harrassing the family by posting diatribes on both the Jennifer Ramsaran Missing FB site as well as the Justice for Jennifer site. Currently, L&M has 4 staff members administrating that site, so they are still inserting themselves into Jennifer's case, and in so doing are continuing to create drama and prevent the family from moving on into healing and closure.

Interestingly, LnM feel they have the right to even invade the Justice for Jennifer site to post tirades against the efforts of this group, but find any (well-warranted) criticism of their own actions to be "cyber-harrassment."

Lost N Missing has caused much additional grief and unwanted drama to a family in the most horrific of situations. In my opinion, they ought not to have the opportunity to inflict this sort of pain on any other individuals.

ETA: Examples of distrust of the police investigation
1) Posted by Cynthia Caron, on 5/25 on Jennifer Ramsaran Missing Facebook site: " I'm also not fond of the fact that his arrest and charges brought forth is on circumstantial evidence. Any charges brought forth I would have hoped and wanted to be solid proof.”
(So...CC states it is "fact" that the arrest was only on circumstantial evidence? She believes that Chenango County LE have no "solid proof?" Hmmm....Sheriff Cutting stated that the arrest was based on the results of the Medical Examiner's autopsy; not sure how CC construes that to be "circumstantial evidence" and no "solid proof")

2) In an interview with News Channel 9, "Caron said she has a lot of questions about the investigation that led to Remy’s arrest." In FB comments, she has echoed this sentiment, hinting that she had "information" that doesn't "fit" with what the police are saying.

3) Police and the DA have stated that the investigative work of computer experts have revealed that GR's alibi of being home working on the computer is false. Cynthia Caron takes direct issue with the IT experts who investigated the case. She posted on 5/25 on the JRM facebook site: "he is an IT person. An IT person is not going to be so stupid as to say they were on a computer working as an alibi if they were not. "

4) Cynthia Caron, on 6/15, posted this on the Jennifer Ramsaran Missing FB page : “He wants nothing more than to find the killer(s) of Jennifer and to prove he is innocent. He put a lot of faith in the Chenango Sheriff to find the killer and now realizes that he should not have put so much faith in the system and should have hired his own top notch PI's once Jennifer's body was found.”

5) Cynthia Caron posted: “In Jen's case there was never any domestic issues in the home, no violence” (JRM 5/25)
Is this woman truly so arrogant as to state with total confidence that a woman she NEVER MET was NEVER the victim of abuse or violence from her husband??? Surely this is something to be proven (or not) at trial based on the testimony of those who KNEW Jennifer -- her family, employer, true friends, pastor, etc.

6) Karen Krapps -- a board member and treasurer of LnM posted numerous long diatribes -- about 7 or 8, maybe more, all in a row, on the Justice for Jennifer FB site (and this is what I mean by invading the site -- polite people make a short statement on FB, and go about their business, and maybe return a day or so later to clarify or respond or whatever. They don't attempt to take over the site. ) The gist of KK's statements was that "adultery doesn't equal murder" (well, sorry KK, but there's a heck of a whole lot more evidence than the fact that GR commited adultery), and she tells us that we should not even consider GR's adultery as being a potential motive for his wife's murder, and "I do not believe for one minute that for the petty amount of money he would have lost in a divorce, he would have risked going to prison for the rest of his life just to keep from losing it." She implies false arrest -- mentions that there have been other cases of people who have been arrested for murder but then found innocent by forensic evidence (newsflash KK -- the arrest was BASED on forensic evidence from the autopsy). KK has made it clear that she believes GR is being "railroaded and not treated fairly or justly" by law enforcement.

7) Cynthia Caron mirrors the sentiments of Karen K with her insinuations of false arrest: "I can only say that I've already seen and known of those charged with murder that were found innocent and later the real killer(s) arrested. .. There is so much that just doesn't fit....contrary to rumors and gossip. " (posted on JRM Facebook, 5/24)

LostNMissing puts great faith and respect for law enforcement and that includes the Jennifer Ramsaran case. We believe they did a wonderful job and I'm not sure why you may believe otherwise? In response to "leaving the case" ....our work for Jennifer's case ended once her funeral arrangements were made. There is no more involvement from LNM on her case...she is no longer missing:( Some of the other things you wrote are your opinions and I respect that, albeit it is the same comments repeated over and again that we've already responded to in that we've always treated Jennifer's family fairly and there was absolutely no harassment ever done. As for one of my Board of Directors "invading the J4J site" I believe that is rather harsh considering it is a public group on Facebook and she has a Facebook account. Whenever a group does not want the public to join in on opinions they convert their groups to private. Perhaps that may be the answer to your obvious concerns and dilemma. Our support to families of missing is clear and apparent by any posts within this site. Every single family has graded us with a 5 star rating...that speaks for itself. The only negatives in this entire site are those that post that have no real knowledge of our work as we did not work for a single person thus far that has posted a negative. That also speaks for itself. Have a good weekend. Thank you.

Regarding #1. Yes. I don't like cases that are based on circumstantial evidence. I had hoped that once an arrest made it would have contained solid evidence. This is my opinions…about cases….not about the Chenango Sheriff Dept. The DA and media reported "circumstantial evidence", not me. Regarding #2 Yes. We have our own knowledge of case specifics that the public is not aware and those are what I question. It will be brought forth in the trial and you too will understand further this comment. Regarding #3 Just my opinion. Aren't I entitled to one? Don't you also wonder, if true, how or why a person with IT experience would be so dumb as to have an alibi of being on a computer if he wasn't? So yes I question that. I also question if his alibi was not true, why did they not bring him back in for further interoggations as to where was Jennifer when she was still missing? My opinion is I believe the alibi is going to be the number one focus on the trial and not the affair. But that is my opinion. Regarding #4 Those are his feelings, not mine. Regarding #5 The Sheriff Department spoke publicly of the very same during the time of Jennifer's missing status. There was no record of any domestic issues in the home. Regarding #6 So you have a problem with the way someone writes longer posts and even go so far as to say how often they should post, when they come back to post too…considering it is a public site? What is all the "control" that you feel is justified to halt anyone with an opinion that differs from yours? Regarding #7 You didn't post the entire comment…thus taking it out of context. I don't know if he was arrested "falsely" or if he committed this horrible crime…I'm admitting it…..I don't know…but that doesn't take away my opinion that, with what info presented thus far, I don't support the fact that he did it. Don't assume you know what I am thinking by placing it as insinuations. Take the full context of all I've posted….I have no idea if Remy Ramsaran is guilty or not. I won't know until trial….just as nobody else knows for a fact either. He was arrested and charged….not found guilty. What I do know is if he is in fact guilty I will be very surprised as so much "doesn't fit" and that is my opinion and due to my personal involvement in the case details and with him as a person that I've come to know.

Cynthia Caron's "assistance" in the Jennifer Ramsaran case borders on the absurd. During the time that Jenn was missing, Ms. Caron suggested that she may have run off with hippies or be in some cult. She always veered away from any suggestion that Jenn may have met with foul play (which is indeed what did happen); rather she helped promote the theory (suggested by Jenn's husband, and Jenn's husband's mistress) that Jenn had run off. She gave an extensive list that was supposed to help us find and identify Jenn (which included the condiments she liked, and portrayed Jenn as a "dreamer" who failed to fit in with her family. She failed to mention that Jenn was a Sunday School teacher, a Girl Scout Troop Leader, a knitting teacher, etc.-- in other words, a type of person that is the bedrock of any community - not one to suddenly abandon the 3 children who were her life). Her list of "helpful information" contained many inconsistencies and incorrect info (such as Jenn didn't run -- when Jenn had recently completed a half-marathon with a very respectable score), but the main problem with the "list" is that it contained many items that were absurdly non-material, and nothing that was particularly helpful in understanding the type of person that Jenn was, and where she might be. She has supported the most likely suspect in Jenn's death, and gullibly accepted everything he has told her, while at the same time publically attacking Jenn's family, and even suing a local journalist and the private investigator hired by Jenn's family. When local volunteers tried to organized a search, Cynthia strongly discouraged it. Her Facebook page for Jenn is....well...let's just say she deletes any postings made from someone with serious questions or helpful comments that could have led to finding Jenn earlier, and that could help with bringing justice to her now.

There is only one helpful thing that Cynthia did that I am aware of -- she did encourage the husband (finally, after Jenn was missing 2 months) to do a series of interviews with local press. This did help raise awareness (and probably led to a local person finally discovering Jenn's body). The interviews were also helpful to many in helping us realize that Jenn most likely did NOT run off, but was the victim of foul play.

Ms. Caron still insists that we "can't know" that Jennifer met with foul play. And, I suppose it may be correct that she can't make such a public statement without verification from law enforcement (and the final reports are not yet in). But it is quite obvious that Jenn met with foul play of some sort -- her body was found, nude, on the side of the road, miles from her home, and miles from where her van was found in a parking lot in Norwich. Her clothes have not been found. So...if Jenn did NOT meet with foul play, then she must have parked her van in Norwich, stripped naked, and walked through the rain about 12 miles down State Road 23 and then to Center Road, where she then rolled herself off an embankment and died. Now...that really stretches the imagination.

And yes, the fact that Jenn was a Sunday School teacher, a knitting teacher, and a Girl Scout Troop leader tell us a whole lot more about Jenn than what condiments she likes on her hamburger. Jenn's life revolved around her kids and around community activities. The type of activities she was involved in portray a woman of faith, a woman committed to her family, a woman highly unlikely to run off.

And...I can't help but wonder...where did Ms. Caron get the information that Jenn had "changed a lot" in the last 6 months of her life? Presumably from Jenn's husband and the husband's mistress. Was this verified by Jenn's pastor? By close freinds that were NOT sleeping with her husband? By her parents? By her sister or cousins?

In response to your thoughts above: We don't know, as yet, the evidence surrounding the disappearance and death of Jennifer. What we do know is a beautiful young life is gone and we grieve for the family and pray for them for strength in the coming days. Should it be learned that her death was in fact "due to foul play" we also stand strong and support that justice be served. Throughout the investigation and search for Jennifer, we at LostNMissing, focused on finding a living Jennifer and we respected that the police were doing their investigations to find the cause of her disappearance and invariably, her death. As a community, and as a parent, we all want to know what happened.

Thank you Cynthia for the posters for the Dont Leave Friends campaign. I think this is a wonderful program and hope that all college dorm exits will contain a poster to be sure students realize that having fun is good, but always stay with your group! Keep up the great work and I will keep you informed on the colleges we place them. Your group is a wonderful service for missing families and for educational resources!

Edited my June 7 post on June 20 to include:

The point in my writing this, is to point out that the negative "reviews" that have been written about LostNMissing were NOT about LostNMissing at all, but instead were just criticisms and condemnations of people who they have a basic disagreement of opinion with.
May it be noted that their assessment of the views and opinions held by Cynthia & I are absolutely incorrect.

The official work of LostNMissing in the Jennifer Ramsaran case ceased upon the discovery of her body. As it was at that point that she was no longer a lost or missing person. Anything done from that point on under the official heading of LNM was done ONLY as a courtesy (such as continuing to help maintain the Jennifer L.Ramsaran - Missing Person page (turned Jennifer Ramsaran Memorial), until someone else could be found to take it over; sharing of banners; making a memorial video). Once the lost or missing person's portion of any case is solved, we no longer have any official role in the case. That does not mean that we disappear, as unofficially we continue to be a friend to all, and a support system for many of our former clients.
Jennifer went missing on 12/11/12.
We were not brought onto the case until 1/22/13.... 42 days AFTER Jennifer went missing.
Jennifer's body was found on 2/26/13 meaning that LostNMissing in an official capacity was only involved in this missing persons case for a total 35 days.
Almost immediately upon our arrival onto the case we were met with rejection, resistance and an unwillingness to accept our help, advice and recommendations.
In those five short weeks, we began an internet campaign to bring awareness to Jennifer's missing persons status making and posted banners with Jennifer's picture, her missing status, and contact information daily on various social media sites. We requested several times to meet with Jennifer's natural family. These requests were made to enable us to be able to personally invite them to the "Shining Hope" event, and to get information, pictures and input for the flyers that we eventually had to have printed using only the information and pictures we had gathered from LE, her husband & children and a handful of friends because our requests to meet with her family were rejected. Cynthia did receive a phone call from Jennifer's father and did have a conversation with him that was to be followed up with a call from his wife. When that didn't happen Cynthia attempted to contact her through private message via facebook which eventually was responded to and about 5 or 6 messages were exchanged (the next day someone from the JFJR page classified Cynthia's attempt to contact Jennifer's mother as "harassment of Jennifer's mother"... it was NOT). Cynthia established continued contact with law enforcement and was in regular contact with Jennifer's husband (who after all was the individual who contacted us and requested our assistance with the case) and several of Jennifer's friends. She secured the use of a billboard and offered to help either the ADM of the JFJR page or Jennifer's family establish an accountable means for accepting donations for another billboard, as well as for other expenses related to that making of the public aware of Jennifer's missing persons case and encouraging information related to that case to be shared with law enforcement, etc. She took over control of a Facebook page that had already been established (sometime in the 6 weeks prior to our involvement) and assigned LNM volunteers to administrate over it (during this time we were also helping to maintain approx. 2 dozen other facebook pages for other clients). After making the arrangements for a public event Cynthia traveled to Jennifer's hometown at her own personal expense (approx a 4.5 hr drive one way) and on 2/16/13 held a public "Shining Hope" event in order to heighten community and media awareness to the missing person case. Cynthia herself walked areas of the community and distributed and hung flyers, again to promote awareness. Cynthia drove to the areas where Jennifer's cell phone and van had been found and collected data and took video and pictures. She spent time with Jennifer's children. And may it again be noted that this was all done within the 5 short weeks that LNM was involved in the case. And it was all done under already difficult conditions made even more difficult due to the involvement of a few self-appointed, obstinate, headstrong, but otherwise believed well intentioned people who felt that they could do our job better than we could even though they very obviously didn't understand what our job was.
There was so much misunderstanding and confusion going on that at one point even Jennifer's family became so confused over which group held which position that they publicly ridiculed the wrong group for planning to have a public search [against the advice of law enforcement] and having put out a public request for members of the public who owned 4-wheelers to bring them to help with the search. However it was NOT LostNMissing who was planning those unapproved searches, as in honoring the request of law enforcement to not hold any public searches LostNMissing made it known that we were opposed to any public searches that were not conducted by professional search & rescue teams (SARs). We, however, did encourage searches by professional SARs (a view that was held in common with her family). Yet somehow LNM got blamed for (paraphrasing) 'turning the whole [search] ordeal into a circus.'
May it also be noted that during LostNMissing's 5 week involvement with the Jennifer Ramsaran missing person's case Cynthia had several other missing person's cases that she was working on; she was also holding down a full time job that requires her to travel; and in addition to having a marriage and household to maintain, she had a child in his senior yr in highschool and also has a special needs adult child whom she has guardianship over; and a blind brother who lives in Ohio and since her own mother's passing this past Nov. has taken on the responsibility of trying to assist (long distance) with his special needs; in the middle of all of this her community was hit with a blizzard for two days; and like every other human being she has to eat, sleep, and go to the bathroom...in simple words it would have been virtually impossible for her to have the time to "harass" anyone.

[Please note: any mention of Jennifer's family in the above was only done for the specific purpose of explaining the course of events that took place and was NOT meant in anyway to be a criticism of anything they did or did not do. We offer them our full and complete sympathy and blame only confusion, frustration and grief for any misunderstandings between them and our organization]


As for the so called "review" offered up against us as private citizens....While I recognize that this is NOT the place to discuss these basic differences of opinion, I will use this space only to clarify...

1) If all it took to deem a person guilty was an arrest, we would have no need for a judicial system. Rejecting the lynch mob mentality that doesn't afford the accused a fair and impartial trial does NOT equate to "questioning the integrity of the police investigation." At this point it doesn't even equate to questioning the integrity of the evidence collected during that investigation because NONE of that evidence has been shared with the public. Withholding judgment UNTIL the accused is afforded a fair and impartial trail where the integrity of the evidence can be questioned and challenged, is how justice is served. LostNMissing supports justice.
2) LostNMissing is an organization that provides assistance to the families of the lost and missing. It is NOT an organization that determines the guilt or innocence of anyone, as that is what we have a judicial system for.
3) Not wanting or intending to be insensitive or disrespectful of the family, I can only respond by saying that if the family did not want "drama" they should have not used themselves, or allowed anyone else, to use the Justice for Jennifer Ramsaran PUBLIC facebook page as a forum to post lies, and libel against anyone. As in partaking in and allowing for it they were acknowledging the existence of the built in reasonable expectation for rebuttal, refutation or expostulation.
4) For the record, unlike Cynthia, Karen Krepps' (though not expressed until now) gut instinct has always leaned more toward Ganish Ramsaran's guilt, but just exactly like Cynthia, Karen Krepps is withholding and reserving judgment until AFTER the accused had been afforded a fair and impartial trial and the integrity of the evidence has been questioned and challenged.
5) I would suggest that the people writing these falsified reviews (that truly have nothing at all to do with the organization LostNMissing and instead are just criticisms and condemnations of private citizens that just happen to work for the organization) get on with their life and realize the rights of others to own view points and opinions that differ from that of their own.

Thanks
Karen Krepps



Response to Lindsay14:
1. LE followed and applied established commonly accepted protocols that are followed in investigating most all missing persons cases. LE asked the usual, and necessary questions that are asked in most all missing persons cases.
Apparently "some" members of Jennifer's family were offended by both the type of questions and the answers that were given by certain "other" members of Jennifer's family. The questions were asked, and answers/statements were given and on record.
ALL of this took place several weeks before LostNMissing had anything whatsoever to do with the case!

Enter LostNMissing...1/22/13
Ms Caron "alluded" to nothing, nor did she "disparage the victims character." She very simply shared with the public the on the record answers/statements that were given to LE in those initial interviews (and later shared with Ms Caron) in regard to any noticeable/notable differences or changes in their missing loved ones disposition, personal life, character, mood, dress, habits, sleep, personal appearance, day to day activities, likes, dislikes, etc.,
That "some" family members were/are offended by that is both unintended and unfortunate, but sometimes unavoidable.



We are realistic and do know that 85% of our missing persons when located are found deceased, however, we always are of hope that if it is YOUR loved one that goes missing that they will be among the 15% that are found alive. We hoped and prayed that Jennifer would be one of the 15% so we maintained a focus on ANY scenario that presented this as a possibility. No possible scenario that was presented as an example was presented for ANY other purpose other than to maintain hope that she would be one of the 15%.
Therefore yes, we were hoping that she was despondent, or depressed, had become involved in something/anything that caused her to feel that she had to walk away from everything for a while, or whatever other scenario that presented an option for the BEST possible outcome...a found alive Jennifer.

Even if they did have some private, instinctual, or personal reason to have doubt ...given the only alternative to finding an alive Jennifer was finding a deceased Jennifer, we did not and do not understand why your family didn't opt to cling to the hope.

As for our organization in every case unless or until hard evidence is discovered by LE that would suggest that foul play was involved we will continue to encourage a family to maintain hope... as we know that 15% of our cases have resulted in positive outcomes. So therefore it is those cases that we turn to and present as examples of why every family should maintain hope.
I repeat: That we presented those examples as possibilities is in NO way whatsoever intended to disparage the character of anyone, but is ONLY intended to provide the family with reason to hope.

We are extremely sorry if your family did not understand our purpose in presenting examples of positive outcomes of other missing persons cases, but we hope that this helps you understand it.



Facebook...We did not take over as adm. of the original FB page until 1/22/13, so anything that took place prior to that had nothing to do with us or our policies.

Enter LostNMissing 1/22/13...With Facebook not having in place any way for our adms to verify the relationship, or intent of a person posting on the page, anyone can claim to be anyone they want to claim to being. To avoid altogether from providing ANYONE (family or otherwise) the ability to post messages of negative or ill intent, or in opposition with the intent of the page, our adms are trained to judge only the content of the message (and ignore all else including claimed family relationship...reason being again, that we have no way to verify those claims).
Bottom line is that if ANY message is found to be confrontational and/or not in compliance with the intent of the page, the post is deleted, period!

To be clear, you are wrong to assume that the only msgs that were removed were msgs written by individuals claiming to be members of your family, as without giving out details, I can tell you for an absolute fact that more than one msg was removed that was most definitely NOT written by a member of your family. ALL msgs were met with the same scrutiny no matter their source.

At any given time we monitor 2 - 3 dozen Missing Persons FB pages and the same rules that were applied to Jennifer's page apply to all of the pages we monitor...we do not adjust or personalize the rules for anyone or any case.

Fact is after hearing of her complaint Ms Caron sent Ms Buff a private msg and requested that she call her so that Ms Caron could personally explain our policies, and apologize for any misunderstanding.

Instead of calling her, Ms Buff opted to hop on board this ongoing well orchestrated crusade against Ms Caron and the LNM organization.
Choosing to give her the benefit of the doubt we opted to overlook those initial actions and attributed them to her simply being distraught over her sisters missing status...but that only worked to intensify the crusade [against Ms Caron and the LNM organization] that she had begun to be actively involved in and had in fact begun publicly soliciting for other people to become a part of too.

At that point it was more than simply a matter of boycotting our organization, but had gone far beyond that and had turned personal, malicious, vicious, malevolent, injurious, & libelous against Ms Caron and the LNM organization.



2) When a reporter "reports" they use in context quoted material. Below is a link to the article mentioned. Please take notice in concern of Ms Caron the ONLY quotes he uses are two quotes for a total of six words, first quote: “one-time” and second quote: “It was not an affair.” When reading the article and seeing how he utilized the quotes it is VERY easy to see that both quotes were completely and entirely taken out of the context in which they were spoken and were placed into the context that he wanted to put them in so that they would say what he wanted to portray them as saying.

For example he wrote:

*Caron, responding to questions from The Daily Star, also said Ganesh Ramsaran admitted to police after his wife disappeared that he had a “one-time” sexual encounter with a woman who is a mutual friend of both Ganesh and Jennifer Ramsaran.*

Since he did quote her as saying the two words, why is the rest of the stuff she supposedly said not quoted too???? The answer is that the 2 words were in fact said by her (thus the quotes) but the rest of what he attributed to her is not a factual account of the words she spoke or the context in which they were uttered. He lifted those two words out of their correct context and put quotes around them, then wrote what he wanted to say around those words in an attempt to give his entire article validity by tricking the reader into thinking that ALL of what he attributed to Ms. Caron was said by Ms Caron when in fact it was NOT. Very twisted, very dishonest and absent of any journalistic integrity. http://thedailystar.com/localnews/x1503756987/Report-Blood-found-in-missing-womans-van

Ms Caron has already explained that she was very specific in her response to Mr Mahoney in stating that according to police reports (and also according to what Mr Ramsaran had personally told her) that in concern of the infidelity she was told that "it was not an affair, but instead was a one-time infidelity, that he greatly regretted and his wife had no knowledge of."
When later in the conversation Mr Mahoney brought it up and again referred to it as an "affair" she again said that per her information it was not an affair, but rather a one time infidelity.
Mahoney said: "yes, an affair"
Ms Caron said: "no, a one time infidelity"
Mahoney: "what is the difference between 'affairs' and 'infidelity'"?
Ms. Caron (speaking metaphorically): "Mr. Mahoney, would you say that if a man went away on a business trip and he and a woman had too much to drink and ended up in bed...would you call that an affair?"


Please note: Ms. Caron was NOT even speaking about Mr Ramsaran, but instead only for the purpose of trying to establish the difference between an affair and a one time infidelity she was using a make believe story about some make believe guy who went away on a make believe business trip got make believe drunk, met up with a make believe woman who also got make believe drunk and they ended up in a make believe bed together!
Yet Mr Mahoney claimed in his article that Ms Caron said [in reference to Mr Ramsaran's infidelity] that "the encounter was fueled by alcohol" when she said no such thing!

Again, please re-read the article: http://thedailystar.com/localnews/x1503756987/Report-Blood-found-in-missing-womans-van



3) Ms. Caron personally took time away from her own family, and time away from her work for pay career, to travel to the community (at her own personal financial expense...LNM finances were only used to cover a portion of the cost of the actual event, Ms. Caron out of her own pocket paid for the rest) and held a community event (Shining Hope) in hopes of uniting the community and the family in their common desire to find an alive Jennifer. Sadly it seems that her family's common belief that Jennifer was deceased prevented them from attending this intended to be unifying community event in spite of Ms Caron having reached out to them.

If there were another reason that prevented Jennifer's family from attending the Shining Hope event it was NEVER shared with us. Had it been, we would have made EVERY effort to accommodate them and diplomatically address their concerns. As while these events have been trivialized and mocked by certain individuals, experience has proven them to be very beneficial to both the emotional well-being of the families of the missing and in gaining community awareness and support. Their purpose is multi-faceted, with the main points being to provide a quiet and comfortable setting where groups of people can meet with the missing person's family and friends, offer them their support, share in their grief, pay honor to their missing loved one(s), raise the communities awareness to the missing person case, and motivate hope. Most definitely we wanted to provide that service to ALL, not just some, of Jennifer's family, most especially her children. Having their maternal grandparents there would have been very meaningful and comforting for them and we would have done everything within our means to make that happen. Yet beyond reaching out, inviting them to attend, and leaving our contact information with them, there was little else that we could do. Sadly, as it was, even that, was by some, considered "harassment."

LNM did not come on board until a full 6 weeks after Jennifer went missing. In the weeks prior to that was when the so called "wars" began. We had no control over and no involvement in that.
Fact is during those early weeks of her disappearance (before LNM had anything whatsoever to do with Jennifer's missing persons case) it was in fact Tracy aka Jillian aka Jack Stevens, aka Jennifer Ann Perry, aka Lauren Sullivan, aka many other aliases who was posting very disparaging things about Jennifer.
She inferred that Jennifer led a "kinky" lifestyle. That Jennifer and her husband had a 'BDSM/kink lifestyle." Suggested that Jennifer may have left her family (aka, 'abandoned') in order to enter "the scene" which she explained is an underground community made up of an entire subculture of people who feel judged if they follow their true identities by leaving what she called "their "vanilla" lifestyles". She even tried to insinuate that Jennifer was mentally unstable by stating that she had read somewhere that Jennifer was taking medication, but gee she couldn't recall if they were psychotropic's or not. And also presented the possibility that Jennifer left willingly and had taken off with someone she met online. In addition while not wanting to be "judge-ey" she expressed criticism of Jennifer's parents and made the claim that it took them 26 days to come home from Arizona after their daughter went missing.
WS Verified Insider - Jennifer Ramsaran Case:
12-26-2012 04:42pm msg #340,12-26-2012, 06:47pm msg #355, 12-27-2012 07:32pm msg #361,
01-02-2013 08:55pm msg # 394, 01-05-2013 05:59pm msg # 427

Ironically it was also this same Tracy (with more than a dozen aliases) who created the second FB page (the one supported by Jennifer's sister & mother) when the original FB page blocked her for posting confrontational, disparaging, inappropriate messages and messages soliciting for volunteer searchers even though it had been explained that LE requested no searches. Seems that somewhere between her original messages on WS and the point that she was blocked on FB she changed her position and decided that Jennifer was murdered and her husband was a murderer. Perhaps without Jennifer's family knowing of her many aliases she began the second FB page and Jennifers family signed on.



Enter LostNMissing 1/22/13
Wanting to protect Jennifer's family from having their vulnerabilities and pain exploited or from being scammed during this stressful and vulnerable time Ms. Caron signed on Tracy's FB Jennifer's page and following her first message posted she was hastefully blocked.
However, because numerous LNM volunteers had also signed on we were aware that within just a few days that the venom was turned on Ms Caron and the LNM organization in full force as several people had begun to post vicious accusatory and libelous comments insinuating that Ms. Caron was "involved" with Mr Ramsaran, was a thieving b!t@h, had harassed Tracy on the WS site (when in fact all she did was make a public response to some of the public messages that Tracy had posted... if Tracy did not want Ms Caron to respond, she was free to put her on her ignore list), implied that Cynthia was some kind of a threat to her and her family and implied this as being her reason for using aliases (in spite of the fact that within their rules it is clearly stated: "Facebook is a community where people use their real identities. We require everyone to provide their real names, so you always know who you're connecting with. This helps keep our community safe."), insinuated that either Jennifer's husband or Cynthia herself was somehow responsible for flyers being take down, accused her of hacking the JFJR site, others accused her of hacking their FB accounts others merely insinuated it, accused her of being involved in murder, accused her of insistently contacting Jennifer's mother and harassing her (there was only ONE, I repeat ONE brief exchange that Cynthia had with her...it consisted of a total of each writing maybe 3 FB private msgs in direct response to each other ), accused her of saying that Jennifer abandoned her family, accused her of demanding that Jennifer's mother admit that Jennifer was mentally unstable, repeatedly named her as being a cyber-bully, of being mentally unstable, some solicited the public to report LNM to the NH Attorney General's Office, some solicited the public to post negative reviews and provided a link to this very non-profit review site, etc.
Heck, Tracy under the JFJR pseudo even put up for 24 hrs a message she wrote for the specific purpose of trashing and posting lies about Cynthia then by using another one of her aliases of Tracy Anne Stearns she responded to her own message to add more bashing...guess she isn't aware of the fact that EVERYTHING that is posted on FB is permalinked to FB for ever and ever?!?!
https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=509172275796149&id=485680108145366


4) I doubt that you truly feel that Cynthia is deserving of the orchestrated crusade and solicited negative review writing campaign to have her organization destroyed simply because at some point she posted a message that said that your uncle (Jenny’s father) didn’t want her reported missing... and that Ms. Caron omitted saying that this was at 5:30PM. Jen was due home at 5PM and her planned trip was 1-1 ½ hours each way?!?!?
Is it not possible that Ms Caron's omission was completely unintended and therefore not unprofessional at all, and simply a mistake??? Or could it have been a matter of her merely sharing a piece of incomplete information that had been shared with her without her having any knowledge of it being incomplete?? Did you ever think to simply ask her?!?!?!

Nevertheless, need I point out the blatant hypocrisy in attacking and participating in this solicited orchestrated crusade of negative review writing and filing of complaints with the NH AG against Ms Caron and LNM on the claimed basis that she displayed "unprofessionalism", while at the very same time showing nothing but continued respect for "Tracy" aka Jillian, aka etc and so on...who, like Ms Caron was a verified insider on the WS board, and who began the other FB page now known as "Justice for Jennifer Ramsaran" (therefore was expected to display "professionalism")...and who on 01-05-2013 said: "As an aside, and I don't meant to sound all judge-ey, but why if your child is missing, would you wait so long (26 days) to come? There could be a myriad of reasons: job issues, perhaps there are financial issues that make the trip cost prohibitive, perhaps it's believed she left willingly, but still...."

Now to address Stephanie's concerns:
Stephanie said: "Numerous family members have informed me that they feel harassed, specifically by Cynthia. They feel that she was argumentative with and even aggressive toward them. I was also the family member informed by an employee of the newspaper in question that Cynthia did in fact reveal the information, and then tell the reporter, "By the way, that's off the record." "


Response:
A public claim of harassment made against someone is a VERY serious matter that could work to not only destroy a totally innocent persons reputation, but can also have a very negative impact on the lives of everyone that surrounds that person. Such a claim therefore must be substantiated with factual, verifiable proof, not rumor, gossip, innuendo or simply a belief in the claims of ones family.
While it may very well be true that some of your family did "feel" harassed... IF they weren't factually being harassed those feelings are NOT valid.
Correcting the record or correcting a printed falsehood on a public forum or social network is NOT harassment even if the person or persons posting the inaccuracies or falsehoods repeatedly ask not to be corrected.
Posting "A" message in response to a message that has been placed on a board in public forum or on social network page is NOT harassment.
Sending someone "A" private message via a social network, and responding to their responses is NOT harassment.
Accepting "A" phone call from someone and asking that they have their wife call them so that they can explain the organizations services, is NOT harassment
Fact is there has not been one single ounce of evidence presented by any of the negative review writers (or anyone else any place) that would support a claim of harassment or bullying done at the hand of Cynthia or LNM, because neither Cynthia or LNM has EVER harassed or bullied anyone.
.
That you included the following in your "review" reveals to me the real root cause of the issues that you and your family have with Cynthia and LNM....quoting you: "My biggest complaint is that Cynthia took into account the word of only one member of this very large family, and took those words at gospel truth. All the family is asking for is some open-mindedness and a willingness to consider that the real truth may be something other than what she is hearing."


As in those two sentences you have stated that it wasn't that Cynthia or LNM did anything wrong, it was that she/they DID in fact maintain their professionalism by keeping their focus directed on the hope that Jennifer would be found alive at a time when your family's focus was apparently only on the alternative (finding a body, and not an alive Jennifer).

Perhaps your family found it antagonistic that we would be willing to work directly with the person that you and your family had decided was responsible for Jennifer's death (please note that this was decided by your family several weeks before LNMs involvement in the case)??? And perhaps what antagonized your family most was that for reasons they apparently did not understand Cynthia did in fact publicly express a belief (in regard to Jennifer's husband) that opposed your families own belief???

But for the children's sake, for your family's sake, and most especially for Jennifer's sake we hoped first that she would be found alive, and when she wasn't we prayed that her murderer would be found to be a complete stranger.


We could never have maintained a focus on finding an alive Jennifer had we capitulated to your family's apparent desire for us to view her husband as a murderer. Can you not see how the two positions directly conflict with one another...how could we keep her children, her family or the public hopeful that she would be found alive if we had already decided that he was her murderer????

And what if your family was wrong? What if she had been found alive? How professional would it have been for us to capitulate to your family's desire for us to treat her husband as a murderer and had we willingly hopped on that 'let's judge, try, and convict him through social network media bandwagon' only to have her found alive? Even after she was found deceased it would have still been extremely unethical for us to jump upon that bandwagon. As what if the autopsy report combined with LEs investigation had cleared him completely of any and all wrong doing or had netted them an arrest, confession and conviction of someone else? What would be said of our "professionalism" then??

That is not to say that we did not recognize that it was possible that Remy could be found responsible for her death, but we also recognized that it was possible that someone else connected or unconnected to her life could be found responsible for her death. As I said we had no pre-existing bias and had been provided no greater reason to suspect him for her murder than we were given to suspect anyone else of being responsible for her murder.


If there were reasons of substance for why your family so strongly believed that Jennifer had been murdered and that Remy was responsible, those reasons were NEVER shared with us by anyone from your family. As everyone in your family rejected our involvement from the moment we became involved which was a full 6 weeks after Jennifer went missing. Fact is we reached out and provided contact information to members of your family and requested to speak and meet with them and (outside of the very brief exchange between Cynthia & Jennifers mom) the ONLY person who responded to that request was Jennifer's father and that phone conversation had to be cut short because he called while Cynthia was driving to an appointment that could not be broken.




Please, please, please understand that none of what I am saying is being said with the intent of disparaging anyone, but instead ONLY for the specific purpose of clearing up the record by trying to get you to see things from another vantage point.

We wanted nothing more than to find an alive Jennifer, and are heartbroken for your family that our hope did not become a reality.
We wanted very much to work with your family, yet understood ahead of time that the possibility existed that Jennifer's mother's, father's, and sister's pain & feelings of vulnerability would be so intense that the only people they may have wanted to work with was LE. We did not take any offense at that, and were very respectful of those feelings. But it was our hope that they would have welcomed our assistance. We cannot be blamed that they didn't.


Beyond knowing that in most cases like this it is common for the husband to be the first person looked at with suspicion, we don't know how or why this division between Jennifer's family and her husband even existed. As there was no evidence available to us that supported or revealed that this division existed prior to Jennifer's missing. In fact on the face it appeared that the family was very closely knitted as Jennifer and her husband lived next door to her parents and it seemed like they all had a good relationship. Looking over the information we were able to access from all outward appearances Jennifer was living within a safe and stable environment that was filled with family and love. And up to and until her body was found no one from her family ever suggested the opposite existed.

In fact each family member picked up the brush and helped paint a portrait of a very happy, very content, well loved, very stable, very honest, very outgoing, highly thought of, highly respected, very intelligent, very active, very talented (even taught knitting classes), very faithful, very accomplished, very personable, very protective and "Mommy" oriented (and hands on children involved), very devoted, community minded, Girl Scout involved, church involved (even taught Sunday school) one who had strong and bonded relationships with all who loved her and all whom she loved, was hard working, fun, spiritual...in other words EVERYONE in your family has painted a portrait of Jennifer that presented her as being the exact OPPOSITE of a controlled, living in fear, beaten down, weakened, victimized, trapped, or abused type of individual.





The facts are what they are, and the facts are that we had NEVER been given any reason whatsoever for not maintaining the goal of finding an alive Jennifer.
Because LE never attached to the case a suspicion of "foul play", never named anyone as a suspect, have kept tight-lipped throughout the investigation, discouraged any public searches, etc.... they gave us no reason to alter or rethink that goal.
Because all the information available us presented to us a well functioning, close knit family and presented Jennifer as the exact opposite of a controlled, living in fear, beaten down, weakened, victimized, trapped, or abused type of individual, it gave us no reason to alter or rethink that goal.
Because your family refused to work with or even talk with us, they to gave us no reason to alter or rethink that goal.

So we held strong to that goal and remained focused only on finding an alive Jennifer.
Not because we took sides in anything. Not because we refused to be open minded. Not because we refused to consider a negative outcome. Not because we refused to consider the possibility of a guilty Remy or a guilty friend or relative....but instead ONLY because we had been given no reason not to continue to hope that an alive Jennifer would in fact be found.


It has been thrown at us numerous times that we did not know Jennifer. No we didn't... however fact also is that we did not know her family, or her friends, or her husband either and therefore we did not have any pre-existing bias regarding anyone.

And it needs also to be noted that for every person who did know them and had expressed to us a belief that Remy had murdered her, there was another person who knew them who expressed to us a belief that he was a victim himself and had nothing to do with her missing status or what turned out to be her murder. And having what some have called a goofy, a gregarious, a narcissistic personality and an obsession with running and working out makes no one a murderer. Nor does committing adultery make anyone a murderer...if it did considering the current divorce rates and rates of infidelity in this nation, we would have more people in prison than out of prison. Yes, it is morally wrong to commit adultery, but it is not a crime, and it makes no one a murderer, but instead just an adulterer.


It also HAS to be understood that we have had cases where the loved ones left behind are 100% certain that their loved one simply ran away, as they had ran away several times before, only to find out later that they had not ran away, but instead had been murdered. As well, we have had cases where loved ones are 100% certain that their missing loved one met with foul play (because they believe to know for a fact that they would never ever leave them, their children, their ailing mother, handicapped sibling, their successful business, etc.) and are 110% certain that they know who is responsible, only to later find out that their loved one was alive and well the entire time that they were absolutely certain that they would never willingly go missing. You name it we have had it or at least heard about it.
It is not EVER us that is not open minded in regard to the numerous possibilities that exist in missing person cases.
Let's face it, if we hadn't remained open-minded as to ALL of those possibilities in regard to Jennifer's case and instead had closed off our minds to limit our thinking only to Remy murdering her as being the only possibility, no one in your family would have had a problem with us or anything that we were doing.



To conclude; there is absolutely no reason for anyone to harbor so much ill will for Cynthia or LNM. Nothing that Cynthia/LNM did or didn't do had anything at all to do with Jennifer's missing status or death. Cynthia/LNM harassed no one. They disparaged no one. They bullied no one. They did not hamper the investigation in any way (but may in fact have inadvertently aided it). They did not cause your family's pain, they did not exploit it, nor did they do anything to either intentionally or unintentionally intensify or trivialize it.

They DID try to protect your family from having their pain exploited by an unlicensed, unprincipled, self-appointed, rogue who refused to even identify themselves.

They DID fully identify themselves and offered to work with the people running the JFJR site. (side note: since there are at present 1,100+ members of the JFJR site and all except one person has their name identified with each msg they post, don't you think that trying to use the excuse of fear for her safety as an excuse for hiding her identity/utilizing multiple aliases kind of raises eyebrows and falls short as being a rational excuse??)

They DID try to protect your family from having their pain commercialized for profit by un-vetted, unregistered, unknowns who use multiple aliases to skirt around and avoid the legal requirements and accountability involved in taking in donations and holding fundraiser's, etc.

They DID recommend that professional SAR's be used.

They DID try to discourage public searches from being done so that any and all possible or probable evidence would be protected from removal or contamination.

They DID try to prevent the whole investigation process from being turned into a three ring circus by overzealous crime solver wannabes (my goodness Tracy was encouraging people to ignore LE's request of no public searches and was even arranging for 4-wheelers etc. to be brought in by anyone who wanted to take part. Thankfully Joann was able to get through to her as Cynthia had tried to no avail).

They DID tell people not to donate through the JFJR site (where there is no accountability at all in place), and told them to instead to donate either directly to the family or through an account set up by the family and offered help in setting up such an account (apparently that didn't sit well with Tracy as she admitted on her latest "review" that this was the reason she blocked Cynthia from the JFJR site...Quoting her: "You were highly vocal about and against people donating to the family via our site. You posted numerous posts telling people NOT to donate to the family via our site. Then, and only then did I block you from that site...." Why should that have even bothered her, let alone caused her to block Cynthia?)



While I can't claim to speak for all, I know I speak for most in saying that your family does have the family of LostNMissing's deepest and most heartfelt sympathy.
While we know for certain that someone is guilty for having murdered Jennifer, and want desperately for justice to be served, we continue to hope and pray that the guilty party is not Remy as we can't imagine a more horrific ending to Jennifer's life than to be murdered by the one person who vowed to both her and God, that for the remainder of their own life, to always love, honor and protect her.

We can also not imagine a more horrific thing for their children to have to bear for the rest of their precious lives than to have to carry with them the burden of the knowledge that their father murdered their mother.

Having said that, while we do not "want" him to be guilty IF in fact he is guilty we also and most definitely hope and pray that he will be made to answer fully, and in the most punishing of ways, for this horrific crime!

While Remy has in fact been charged with this inexcusable and horrific crime, from all outward signs it appears that the case against Remy is built entirely on circumstantial evidence meaning that not even the Sheriff's Dept and investigators, can say without any reasonable doubt that Remy in fact murdered Jennifer. So how can we?? This may or may not change depending upon the evidence collected and presented in a court of law (which despite the claims of the rumor-mills has NOT been released and is only in the hands of the DA and Defense Attorneys). Therefore we must all wait until trial, listen to all evidence and then put it in the hands of a jury to determine if in fact they believe that the evidence (circumstantial or otherwise) is so overwhelming as to support a guilty verdict. As in our system of justice one is not required to prove their innocence, so innocence must be presumed in the absence of having evidence (circumstantial or otherwise) to support a determination of guilt beyond that of a reasonable doubt. Regardless, no matter what one may believe or not believe, whether he is determined by a jury of his piers to be guilty or not guilty, …..no matter the outcome of all of this…..LNM and Cynthia Caron, and her staff, have nothing whatsoever to do with Remy's or anyone else's guilt or innocence.

May God be with your family and comfort them through this very trying time.

First and foremost I would like to extend my deepest sympathies to all of Jennifer Ramsaran's loved ones, both family & friends. My thoughts and prayers go out to all who knew and love her.

Having read many of the exchanges surrounding this specific case, as well as the "reviews" I believe that the source of the "conflict" is in the failure of some to understand what our organization does and does not do.

My name is Karen Krepps. I am the Treasurer/Board Member Volunteer for the non-profit LostNMissing, Inc.

I would like to bring awareness to the public of a number of concerns I've observed as well as clarifications to those concerns. As the Treasurer who oversees all financial records, and as a B.o.D. of this wonderful and committed organization I can assure you that none, I repeat NONE of the monetary or in-kind donations have ever been used for anything other than to assist the families of missing persons. In addition I can also assure you that Cynthia Caron has each year donated herself more in time and of her own personal income [both she and her husband] than what has been totally donated and received over the five years that LNM has existed as a registered non-profit.

I would also like to reiterate a previous fact that was stated in that from it's inception LostNMissing has had a distinguished and stellar reputation. We are a highly principled, and reputable organization who has worked with on average over 300 families of missing persons each year (approx 1,500 since it's inception with never a previous negative review). Many of those families have in fact consisted of divided families and/or families in conflict and therefore not able to work together and function in unity. In those cases we have many times reached out to and worked jointly with other aid to the missing organizations, as we believe that never should the focus of finding a missing loved one be side tracked by new or pre-existing personal conflicts, family disputes, pre-existing bias, rushes to judgment, oneupmenship or for any other reason.

Our goal and mission is VERY narrow in scope and does NOT include becoming embroiled in family disagreements, disputes, finger pointing, or assigning guilt or innocence. As experience proves out when a loved one becomes missing, ALL families have within them members that experience a myraid of emotions, with some who become extremely distraught, and others who are so desparate for answers that they become frustrated, disheartened, confused, angry, or vulnerable.

We therefore strive to maintain a very strict set of directives ...those directives being, to aid the family in keeping their focus on the hope of finding their missing loved one. We do this by helping them to continue to bring awareness to the public of the missing individual. As well, we support law enforcement and families in all ways possible with media, internet, and public awareness......we leave the "investigative work" to the investigators, the "prosecutors work" to the local DA, and the "perceivers of innocence or guilt" to the Judge & jurors and do NOT encourage vigilantism.

While we have great respect for their work, we are NOT a crime solver/crime stopping/justice seeking organization. Fact is much of our clientele involve families of missing individuals who have gone missing by their own accord or volition (people with deminished mental capacities, people suffering from depression, people wishing to escape a troubled relationship, people wishing to avoid debt that they cannot pay, underage children wishing to take a shortcut to independence, underage children wishing to live with their non-custodial parent, people who choose to hide themselves from certain family members, people who have joined cults, people who have become involved in extra-marital affairs, etc, and so on...the list is massive...no two cases are perfectly alike, and many involve NO crime whatsoever). Our organization is in place to serve one primary purpose...that is to aid the families of missing people with maintaining hope in finding their missing loved one. We very simply and very clearly work with local law enforcement to try to guide families as to what needs done to help locate their missing family member. For missing adults, this includes media, marketing, designing missing posters and banners, and assisting the family with needed events as well as contracting for search and rescue, "IF" and only "IF" that is advised or requested by their local police agency.

In addition, when and "IF" law enforcement notifies us that a probable crime is involved with a loved ones disappearance, then and only then will we assist the family in them being able to connect to one of the highly reputable, well vetted professionally operated victims advocate and/or crime solving support organizations that are in existance in their local area. Until then we ONLY provide them with the limited in scope, neutral, non-judgmental services that our orgaization is set up to provide. As again, our goal is ONLY to assist the family in maintaining hope and finding their missing loved one.

We are always available to the family and work with professionalism and compassion. We are here to offer our services and support to ANY and all who request it.

It is very understandable that emotions run high while a loved one is missing, and that the devistation over having that loved ones body found deceased can be overwhelming and can cause family members to lash out and react in ways not in line with their normal character. Grief has a way of clouding our thought.

It is NOT understandable [nor is it legal] however, for anyone to act with a conscience intent to demean, disparage, defame, slander or libel against an organization or individual, for any reason let alone simply because that organization or individual does not provide the services that are desired nor is teh organization tolerant of any attempts by others to push them to go outside of the scope of the services that they offer.



To be clear:

1) we do not have, nor have we ever had a private investigator working for us

2) we do not/did not cyber-bully anyone...nor do we have the desire, the know how or ability to "hack" anything....in addition we have no influence or control over what Facebook does or does not do

3) we set up a page on a social network website (Facebook) for the very specific purpose of providing a forum for people to offer support and prayer for the family of the individual missing...anything that was posted by ANYONE that did not meet this purpose was deleted for the 2 very specific purposes of a) keeping hope alive by keeping the focus ONLY on finding the missing person b) protecting the family from unwanted postings/comments (prohibiting any unnecessary and unwanted drama that serves no one any good purpose)...asking that maturity and respect be shown and removing from public view messages that do not adhere to the stated purpose of the site is NOT to display malice or cruelty toward anyone

4) at no time have we ever "leaked" anything...before sharing any information we make every attempt to verify it... if it is unable to be verified but is believed that it could be helpful in locating the individual we make certain to note that it has not been verified

5) we understand that many areas of a loved ones life are "sensitive" areas and we strive to be as respectful as possible of that...however, often times the ability to locate a missing person relies heavily upon the family looking at every possible scenario of why their loved one may be missing...that we provide a list of possible scenarios for the family & friends to consider is NOT an attempt to degrade or malign the reputation of the missing individual or of any of their family members

6) trying to help family and friends keep the focus on hope and finding the missing individual requires us to walk a very thin line between encouraging family and friends to share sometimes sensitive information that may aid in their finding while at the same time also encouraging them to steer clear of and resist any finger pointing, rushes to judgment, assigning of guilt or innocence, etc.

7) that we keep records of all of our correspondences...is NOT to be interpretted as we "record" our conversations

8) we do not "defend" the individuals who request our services, we instead provide them to the best of our ability the services that our organization is set up to provide....neither do we attempt to establish anyone's guilt or innocence...as noted prior, many of our cases have no involvement with a crime being committed whatsoever.



I truly hope this helps to clarify what our organization does and also helps to clear up the apparent misconceptions of the services we offer.

As for the character of Cynthia Caron, I have known Cynthia for 36 yrs, and I have not only trusted her with my life, but also with the lives of my children and would most definitely trust her with the lives of my grandchildren. She is one of the most giving, committed, passionate, compassionate, and selfless individuals around. She is the mother of three children...her middle child, now a special needs young adult (of which Cynthia has legal guardianship) has provided her with a strong background in advocating for and helping those who cannot help themselves in many ways over the years from the Epilepsy Foundation to Parents of Children with OCD to the Autism Society and the Alzheimer's Association (not to mention the fact that throughout her childhood and early adulthood...until he could learn enough to establish an independent life himself... she served as being the eyes for her brother who was born blind and is only 11 months older than she. They have an extremely close bond, still today.) She has and maintains a superior and highly respected reputation, as does her organization. All who personally know her are in awe of her devoted commitment to aiding the families of the missing. She has a heart of gold, and is truly one of the best "good people" that I have been blessed to know in my life. Neither does she, nor her organization deserve the negative, demeaning, defamatory, and libelous comments and reviews that have been made about both. Anything that was "eyebrow raising" or maliciously done against Jennifer was NOT done by Cynthia or this organization.
Again I would like to extend my deepest sympathies to all of Jennifer Ramsaran's loved ones...from the bottom of my heart I pray that you will be provided the strength to overcome your heartache and grief and I hope and pray that you will with little delay and absolute clarity get the answers needed in concern of her missing and her death...may she rest in peace.

Respectfully,
Karen Krepps
B.o.D. LostNMissing, Inc

Dear Cynthia,

I'm sorry it's taken me some time to write to you.

I want to say thank you very much for your time, expertise and sympathy during our ordeal this past week. The love and support from you, together with your production of multiple versions of the flyers, and follow-through until the thankfully brief search, meant an enormous amount. You are amazing and the work you do, which seems tireless and 24/7, is a true gift. I don't know how you find the strength to hear these stories and go after the efforts with such energy - you must be an angel. You were exactly right with your advice on how to locate our Holly and I'm beyond relieved that she was found. Of course we are devastated with the outcome, but surely it would have been worse if the search dragged on. Thank you a thousand thanks.

With love and hope,
Nicole

Founder is a narcissistic martyr. They are not a search organization. Texas Equisearch and CUE will actually search- not send up lanterns and splash their logo all over. The organization exists solely for the ego of the owner. I have contacted their corporate sponsors.

You are correct. We are not a Search and Rescue organization. We do work with SAR teams, as our law enforcement officials may request such needed services. It is part of our programs and services. You can learn more at our website. Thank you.

As soon as I contacted Cynthia about a year and half ago, she got right to work gathering the information needed to locate my missing person.
For that I want to thank her and the team at LostNMissing.
My missing person was located about two months ago, although needing to make some changes
and get some much needed help, we know they are safe.
Again Thank-you for all your help.

I started in 2013 and am so thankful to be able to help. I would just like to say to end this is LostNMissing Inc is one of the best organizations for missing persons. The whole team works so hard to get missing persons out there. They go above and beyond. A truly great place!

I got interested in LostNMissing a few years ago when a situation with my family brought my attention to the number of homeless people who were going missing or dying under strange circumstances and nothing being done by the cops or anybody else in this one particular State which is Oregon.Then I noticed a few odd things that I picked up on regarding kids who seemed to appear in this one particular family for no reason and then sort of disappeared and I could never find a satisfactory explanation, so I started watching several missing sites and got so wrapped up in posting these missing people posts that I have actually made it my quest in life to keep on doing this because I believe that one day one of these posts will give me the proof that I need to nail certain people whom I believe are involved in the crimes mentioned above.
LostNMissing is a very fine and truthful website and that is why I use this site and three others every day.

Thank you Angela. The public is truly not aware of just how large trafficking is in the USA. Thank you for your care, observations and dedication to a very important cause and epidemic. I hope Law Enforcement will take your reports of what you are suspecting. It is better to err on the side of caution, than not.

LostNMissing.org has been nothing less than a group of people who have a common goal and that is to help those missing and their families and friends. The organization provides rules the volunteers follow and an explanatory professional standard to follow. The information provided is nothing like hearsay but accurate, current details found in reliable sources such as NAMUS.org.

I am an Admin for states, Nevada and Oregon. I feel a lot of pride in bringing hope and encouragement for those who have been LostNMissing and to the families and friends who await their return to home.

This organization helped my family through
our darkest days. My son was missing and
when we had no idea where to turn for help
we were blessed to be put in contact with them.
They helped us do everything to spread the
information of his disappearance. From posters
to loving support, the knowledge and guidance
was so needed and very much appreciated.
Thank you again, the loving family of George

Mrs. Caron should be embarrassed and ashamed of her actions toward the family of Jennifer L. Ramsaran and toward the people who have helped the family. I have followed this case from the beginning and have been appalled at the way she has spoken of Jennifer and the people who formed a Facebook page to support finding her and then seek justice for her. I have worked missing persons cases in the past and wouldn't hire this company.

It is beyond reason why Mrs. Caron would continue on in a disrespectful manner, seeking vengeance long after a case that she said she no longer had anything to do with. She blindly took Mr. Ramsaran's lies as truth without question, even when his statements to the press and videorecorded interviews rose serious suspicion in anyone who can see the forest through the trees.

The URL links in below posts are unacceptable. There appears to be grounds for a libel suit in my opinion. I will never suggest her company to another family that ever seeks assistance in finding a missing person. I am embarrassed that I have in the past.

The fact that there are many positive reviews posted immediately after a negative review is posted is very telling.

My name is Amanda and I have volunteered for LNM from time to time over the past 4 years. I would love to give more time but having children and a full time job only enables me so much time. I know firsthand the hours and time that Cynthia puts into her company and familys who have missing. She never stops until all needs are met and will work towards the near impossible and come out with solutions when obstacles stand in the way! I have learned and grown from her outstanding professional relationships with all she does! Anyone that is saying anything different does not know Cynthia!!! She is a mentor to many other organizations who come to her for assistance. She turns nobody away. She uses her own personal income to enhance her nonprofit funds when low. I swear she never sleeps. In reading reviews I can only say that proof is that never has a negative word or opinion been given to her by any family or anyone who knows her until this group of Facebook posters are parroting each other with unfounded and baseless accusations.

My Cousin Ashley Carroll has been missing since 5/6/10 from the Albany, NY area , with no leads on her whereabouts. When Ashley first went Missing I was blessed to meet Cynthia Caron through devine intervention, if you were to ask me. Cynthia has been sooooo helpful in updating and circulating flyers for my missing cousin and our family. As if that wasn't enough for a complete stanger to do in our time of need, It got better. When another Missing person was found deceased :'( and they had a billboard getting ready to be set up in hope's to find her, I found out sadly she was found deceased and Cynthia reached out to me after speaking with the friends, family and supporters of this other young lady's Missing case and offered that My cousin could be displayed on this billboard seeing how everything had already been paid , that truly was the most generous and kind gesture that anyone had done for our family. I'm truly sadden that the young lady the billboard was intended for was found deceased and my heart breaks for them because noone in this situation ever wants that outcome, however I feel blessed that My cousin was thought of and the other people involved decided to keep the monies and help another family in need, and we happened to be on the receving end of her kindness. I honestly Can't ever tell you how blessed to have people like Cynthia out here in the world because it make's me believe that Angel's do walk among us here on earth. I don't think there are enough word's to explain my greatfulness for all who do acts of kindness not because they have too but because they choose too. So to close this comment to everyone who has suffered behind having a Missing loved one know your not alone and there are amazing, loving and compassionate people out in the world that do care about our Missing loved one's and do whatever they can to help us find them, so that we should be greatful! Don't kill the messanger, there just trying to help! There using info provided to them and not always is the information 100% correct but there not putting information out to point fingers but rather to HELP FIND OUR MISSING!!! Tysm to all of you but a very extra special Thanks to Cynthia Caron who has been a true blessing XoXo

I'm not going to personally attack Cynthia Caron, but I will question many of her choices in the Jennifer Ramsaran case. Her decision to spend most of her time defending Ganesh instead of actually doing something for Jennifer was a very poor one. It's difficult to help "so many" families with missing members if you're on the internet all day everyday ranting on people who only want to see Justice for a woman who did nothing wrong other than to be murdered by her husband in cold blood.

This case is much more personal for my wife and I. WE WERE JEN'S FRIENDS. WE KNEW HER FOR 20 YEARS. You've never met her, but assumed that everything the husband told you must be the truth. Mistake #2. If you had backtracked in Jan/Feb and said "ok, listen, I'm not going to continually defend Ganesh when we should be trying to find Jen. THAT's the important thing here." Didn't happen. Instead, Jen is dragged through the mud by her husband in the media. Did you ever question why he sat at home everyday while total strangers were looking for Jen?

You need to lay off the people who are upset on the J4J page. Those people have had to put up with a lot of threats (mostly from your organization), and silence (mostly from you deleting any comments where Ganesh's actions were questioned).

You cannot threaten anyone with fear tactics anymore. You have no more bargaining chips left. Your last one is sitting in a jail cell. It would be best if you just shut it down and walked away. You leave them alone.....they'll leave you alone.

I'm sorry that you've been misled to come to some of your conclusions and in due time you will see that defending the integrity of a missing persons case and the investigation is not the same as defending a person. I'm very sorry that you lost your friend Jennifer. We, as much as everyone, look forward to the trial and receiving needed answers. Regarding threats, again you are misled as I retained a lawyer back in early March against the libelous attack against myself and my organization. That was not a threat, and the person(s) involved are aware and all but one (your ADM on J4J) has been compliant. Also, to state that I assumed everything the husband told me "must be truth" cannot be stated as you do not know what he said that I already had confirmed with law enforcement as "truth." So please. Like everyone must...let's wait for the trial. Prayers for you and your wife in the loss of your friend, Jennifer. This is not something I would ever want anyone to have to endure. One life taken, affects hundreds. It's heart-wrenching, to say the least.

It's sad that LnM's employee's have to write reviews of their own organization just to try to keep up their "rating". Perhaps they were a great and helpful organization to other families, but not to the family of Jennifer Renz Ramsaran. Well, they were very nice to the missing victim's husband, and took every word of his as gospel. Cynthia Caron spent more time on Websleuths and Facebook constantly defending Jennifer's suspected husband than anything else. It's a shame she wasn't helping familes actually find missing people. I know she didn't help them here.
From day 1, she became the husband's public relations rep, and because SHE "ruled him out", based on ONLY information that he gave her, he must not have had anything to do with her disappearance. His alibi has so many holes in it, not to mention his affair, which Cynthia tried to downplay as a "one-time tryst".
Because she took everything he said as fact, she tried to get the mother of the victim to announce that Jennifer was mentally ill and ran off on her own. The poor victim's mom had to block Cynthia from her FB page the harrassment wouldn't stop. Not to mention that EVERYTHING Joann Buff states in her review from earlier this March is absolutely true.
Instead of doing the right things to find Jennifer, Cynthia, on top of defending the husband and deleting ANY FB comments that posted an opinion that differed from hers, thought that posting Jen's likes and dislikes would be helpful to find her. She doesn't like condiments on her hamburgers and only drinks water with lemon? Excuse me while I alert CNN.
Cynthia also took the time to TRASH the MISSING PERSON. She left her 3 children on her own right before one of the kid's birthdays and right before Christmas? She hung out near local druggies so she must be a druggie? She was on her phone all the time so she must have met up with someone online and just DITCHED her kids?
The way you represented yourself and your "organization" in this case was absolutely deplorable.
You did nothing but dishonor Jennifer, her memory, and her family. It is the hope of everyone that you cease discussing the case that you are no longer a part of, and stop threatening people with lawsuits for posting their opinions. There's nothing you can do now to stop Remy from going to prison for the rest of his life. You bought his story and now you're going down on a sinking ship. It's a shame and while I would normally feel very sorry for you, I can't because of what you and Remy put Jennfer's family through. "No prayers. Never."

I have been knowing Cynthia Caron and Lost and Missing about one and a half years. I am currently State Administrator for Arkansas Lost and Missing. I am also the Mother of Missing Adult April Beth Pitzer. Cynthia and Lost and Missing has been there for me at any and every hour of the day or night that I've needed a shoulder to lean on.When I've needed encouragement, to cry, whatever situation I've found myself in Cynthia has emailed or personally called me right away.As a Mother of a missing daughter I've contacted or worked closely with various, numerous Organizations. Most I have found to be there for "their own selfish agendas " and "notoriety ". Lost and Missing truly cares for our missing, and sincerely want to help us thru the nightmare of losing a loved one. I am grateful for Cynthia and her foundation. Proud to be a small part of Lost and Missing. You can rest assured, if Cynthia says she is going to do something she will. Thank you Cynthia for seeing the need there is to help The Missing and the families left behind as something you felt passionate enough about to step up to the plate and try to make a difference in the lives of so many.We're Blessed to have you.

I personally know that LostNMissing is great and very helpful to a lot of people . Everyone that is a volunteer does have a very big heart! Before I started to volunteer for LostNMissing if i was not sure on something i could send a message to Cynthia Caron, as I have her as a friend on Facebook, and she would find me the info that I need or tell me what I need to know. I would tell anyone to have LostNMissing take their missing persons' case as Iknow that Cynthia Caron and all volunteers for are doing it from the heart. They really do care about everyone and they show their care. Thank you Cynthia Caron and LostNMissing for all the great work you do and keep it up! Those that do not have anything nice to say are just trying to make themselves look good and it is not making them look good at all .i am proud and happy to be part of lostnmissing .

I am absolutely disgusted with Cynthia Caron's behavior. She defended Jennifer's husband since day one and treated Jenny's family horribly. She had the audacity to create a website to harass and provide personal information of those who spent many hours aiding in the search of Jennifer. I'm just blown away. I will be sending links to that website to every single person who has donated to her charity.

It is critical that anyone being threatened by Cynthia Caron of LostNMissing, consult with an attorney.

All a cease & desist is, is a formal letter demanding that a party stops and refrains from an activity that the demanding person finds objectionable.

What she continues to do is considered a legal threat. Mrs. Caron, you are a martyr and a bully.

YOU made a decision in choosing to represent Ganesh Ramsaran. In poor taste, you catered to his story and never did much to help find Jennifer. In fact, you fed into his obvious lies and created enough drama to take the focus off of Jennifer and her family. The most disturbing element is the lies you told. You claimed to have insider information from local law enforcement and you posted consistently on Websleuths.com under the tag Lavanda Dolce (sp?) where you claimed that you were working directly with law enforcement and you were backing Mr. Ramsaran 100%. You fought with Jennifer's sister on social media sites all the while still defending a murderer. You should be ashamed of yourself. You can't seem to find it inside of your heart to apologize, can you? Take some ownership, show some humbleness and then MAYBE you'll get 5% of respect from the majority affiliated in this case.

Also, naming people's names on here or anywhere else for that matter is considered libel and slander.

I'm not scared of you one bit and I don't find you of importance. I am also not here under anyone's thumb. Mrs. Caron, quite frankly, you disgust me.

Choosing to represent Mr. Ramsaran? We are not lawyers, Mr. GregR. We worked to find Jennifer. That is what we do..assist families of missing, provide support and do all possible to bring awareness of the missing loved one. We cannot create the outcome...we can only do all possible to locate the missing person. Nor do we have anything to do with the cause of reason they are missing. At the same time, they were not "threats" of a libel claim. I retained a lawyer from my personal income to have this nonsense stopped. Please read my response to Tracy for further explanation.

Mrs. Caron, you are nothing but an online bully.

I cannot believe how unfprofessional you are. This social media and online presence you have is only a detriment to your organization.

Prior to this, you may have led a reputable organization but you are now carrying yourself in a manner in which does not suit a non profit organization, specifically focused on the missing.

Your idle threats are disgusting. I feel sad for those you are attacking. I wish you had more tact and compassion.

I cannot imagine you being a leader for this organization if this is your true personality.

Trace my IP, do what you need to do - as a general member of the public, I am entitled to my opinion and this behavior is disgraceful. You do not scare me with your threats and bully behavior.

******Edit to respond to Info_lostnmissing -

The behavior I find disgraceful is the continuous online drama. If you are in a position that holds reputation and respect, I would think that your online presence is important to you. I would think you take your job very seriously and would want to be noble, compassionate, sincere, honest, specific, tactful, & fair. I haven't seen any of that. I have followed your posts on Facebook and cannot believe the way you attack people for voicing an opinion, the way you block people who do not agree with your theories, & the way you slander people for having an opposing view. You threaten various websites with lawsuits that are erroneous.

You state that you are a simple person who spends hours of your own time helping others, however; I have seen a lot of wasted time in the case of Jennifer Ramsaran.

I do think that you didn't do Jennifer any justice when you spoke of her. In fact, I didn't hear you mention much good about her. I know that you received most of your information third hand but I hope that in your next case, you take the time to really talk to the right people. I could spend hours here typing what I feel was done wrong but there's no point. I hope you learned something. No one is perfect and maybe you were misled by someone. Maybe after there is an arrest, you'll have a better and different perspective. I hope that's the case. I'm only posting because I want justice for Jennifer and feel that you had the ability to do so much more to help her case and the side show circus and drama didn't help the investigation at all. People wanted to trust and believe you and they sided with you for reasons unknown because of your name and organization. I think that people are starting to think outside of the box now and develop theor own theory. I think you should have kept your opinion more to yourself and state only facts. Now facts are being put out there but for months, nothing much was said other than she didn't like whip cream and liked sleeping in.

I think the best thing you can do is just stop with the chaos. Be humble, do the right thing and seek justice for Jennifer as well.

Jennifer Ramsaran's husband has been arrested for her murder. This organizations' president proclaimed his innocence far and wide . Please see media reports below:

"Remy Ramsaran has spoken to media on the guidance from the non-profit group "Lost N Missing."
"Without Lost n Missing, I can tell you I'd be a wreck."
They encouraged him to do interviews in an effort to keep Jennifer's name in the news.
The all-volunteer group specializes in finding missing people.
It managed the publicity campaign for Jennifer Ramsaran, including taking over her Facebook page."


http://www.9wsyr.com/news/local/story/Missing-persons-group-shocked-by-Ramsaran-arrest/2e0hc6zKkECquFgYcW2hrg.cspx

"A group called "Lost and Missing" spent the next 6 weeks working to find Jennifer at the request of Remy. The group's founder told NewsChannel 9 that she saw no reason to think Remy was involved.
"There was never anything said or done that would give me pause to evaluate and reconsider, could he possibly have something to do with Jennifer's missing status,” said Cynthia Caron.

*Caron said she has a lot of questions about the investigation that led to Remy’s arrest."
---------------------------------------------------
Now, Ms. Caron seems to be questioning the integrity of the Chenango County Sheriff's Office.

*2,000 go missing in the USA, every day. Some never to be found. On any given day, there are as many as *100,000 active missing persons cases in the United States. Of those, we know that 85% of missing adults missing are due to foul play or homicide. We are fully aware that in all of our cases our loved one may not be located safely. Our job was to find a living Jennifer while the police and all law enforcement officials do their investigative processes to determine if foul play transpired. Your comment that "now Ms. Caron questions the integrity of the Chenango County Sheriff Office" is incorrect. The comment of "She has a lot of questions about the investigation that led to Remy's arrest" is in reference to confidential case information, that was never released to the public, that I look very forward to as to the results. I have nothing but high regards and admiration towards the entire team at the Chenango Sheriff Department and their professionalism through out the entire case.

Seems like blackmail for removal of negative reviews:


http://lnmresponds.blogspot.com.au/p/what-next.html



"It's easy. You ...........
Remove all of your posts that contain libel and lies about my company, me and my work.
Stay away from me , my company, and my staff and carry forward as if you never knew I (we) existed.
Stop harassing me.
Tell your entire team of followers to stop harassing me.
Stop encouraging others to harass and/or post false reports on our accountability page.
Leave us alone.

I don't even want an apology. (I've already had two people message me to apologize. DON'T. Just do the right thing.) Just carry forward with your lives and do something constructive with it to help others instead of destroying people's reputations, lives and playing malicious games. I don't want apologies. I want you to STOP harassing me and carry forward with your lives as if you never heard my name , my company or any of my staff member names.

Once I see that has transpired....I will delete this blog. You go your way....I go mine.
However, should your harassment continue.........I will have this google cached and I will allow the entire cyber world to be aware of the malice and malicious means that some people will go to just to be cruel. I will also post far more incriminating posts than what you've seen thus far....because you all taught me a great deal. You taught me exactly what the First Amendment stands for...and that is the right to be able to voice my opinion, the right to self defend with truth. I've also learned that once you make your opinion public, whether it be Facebook or elsewhere , and you have your name attached....you've already given free reign to having your first and last name divulged as part of my explanation of truth. That is not harassment. For now, I've even given you the courtesy that you NEVER gave me by keeping your last names from being divulged. However, that will also change if you continue to harass me, my company or my staff....in any way...written or otherwise.

For the record, this site is not google cached. The only way someone will find this will be when they post malicious testimonials at our GreatNonprofit site and see the link to this site. Keep in mind the link to this is now in my comments on all of your "testimonials." The only way those links will go away....is when you delete your "testimonial." As you delete your malicious posts....so will the link to here. Once all the posts are deleted....all the links go away. I then delete this blog.

As for the libel? It's in my attorney's hands.

Lost n missing i could never say enough good things about this organization. My mother Cloudia Leslie Wells has been missing since 1998. The last 3 years lost n missing has made a updatef flier for me each year. This year is my moms 60th birthday. I have called and checked a few diffrent places to get a age enhancement picture done. The prices are so high. That i was unable to afford the service. Last night i got a message from Cynthia Carson from lost n missing. Not only did she update my moms flier for this year. She surprised and amazed me with a age enhancement picture of my mom. This has brought tears to my eyes. And i do think god had his hand in this. I will never beable to say thank you enough. I wish their were more organizations like lost n missing out their! God bless you for this!

LostNMissing gave so much support to my family and it is greatly appreciated. A special thank you for all the hard work and time spent to help our family.

December 11, 2012, my good friend, Jennifer Ramsaran became missing. My husband was the one who noticed her husbands Facebook page first. Remy posted his plea of help to all his family and friends that she did not return home from a trip to the mall in Syracuse, NY. I was in shock and in horror to find out and read about this. I’m sure that every person who was ever close to her felt the same way. Each day seemed like an eternity, and I could not imagine what Remy and his children were going through. My close friend who is Jenny’s friend as well, recommended to Remy that a Facebook page be set up for her being missing. When this comment was made, NO ONE offered to set up a page for her, this includes close family and friends. So I offered to help Remy set one up. He was emotionally drained and exhausted from this whole ordeal of what he and his children were going through. I started the page on January 1st, 2013, to help Remy and of course Jenny. Within a couple days, there were horrible and mean comments accusing Remy of being the one who harmed, hurt and even killed Jenny. I could not even believe that people would even be posting these horrible comments. Remy, his children, his family, his close friends, were all reading these awful comments. I had to delete and even ban people so they could not post again their hateful messages to the public. I am a good friend to the Ramsaran’s, and I truly believe Remy had nothing to do with Jenny being killed. He will remain innocent in my eyes, unless proven otherwise by the police department. One of the people that I banned was angry over it, and started their own Facebook page for Jenny. The rude, horrible comments and gossip that they made towards Remy and the page I set up were unbelievable. These same people were also posting on the websleuths website, and also under all the news articles that were posted online about Jenny. It was done hourly, day-by-day. I had to sit and watch my computer all day long, trying to stop this craziness that these people who claimed to be caring and doing all they could for Jenny, post mean and hateful comments about Remy and or my page I set up. I was so stressed and getting very depressed during these weeks. I as well have a very large family to take care of and think of. I did not know what to do or how to deal with all the mental stress for all of this. I too was dealing with Jenny being missing and scenarios of what could have happened to her. I was suffering myself. All I thought I was doing was just setting a Facebook page up for Remy and that was it. I didn’t know that this was going to consume every hour and minute of my life. The pain and anguish it caused Remy, his kids, his close family and friends, and myself was AWFUL! I had NO idea what to do… my husband just wanted me to stop the page. But with all the lies and untruths that were being brought up on the other page, there needed to be a page that had the truth and honestly trying to help find her. I really don’t see how this other page and people who comment horrible gossip, could think they have done nothing wrong. When a person makes a rude, judging, blaming comment… that in itself is wrong. I really did not know what to do. One day I saw a comment made by Cynthia Caron. It was obvious there was a conflict going on between the 2 pages. She seemed to notice this, so she posted an article she made about how to put a Facebook page, website, etc up for a missing person. What to do and what not to do. I read it, and was so RELIEVED! I had to contact her to get more information and what I could do about this horrible mess. I have never seen anything so horrible as to what was happening on the other Facebook page and other websites. I talked to her on the phone and relayed everything I was going through that was happening to Remy. It was a HUGE relief to me that she understood and has dealt with similar situations as this. She explained all the services her LostNMissing organization did to help the families who have a family member that is missing. The JOY I felt when I found her and the answers I was given to help was AMAZING. The first thing was I contacted Remy and had the 2 talk together. Remy and I both did not know how to handle the media about this horrible situation. Remy and I were both in tears of GRATITUDE… Cynthia Caron was an ANGEL sent to HELP us. She SAVED us from this AWFUL HELL that we were going through. The sheer RELIEF was amazing… Cynthia, immediately that day set up a website and blog for Jenny. She was so on the ball to help. She even went on websleuths website to make comments and to try to squash all the horrible gossiping that was going on. She had some of her staff added to the Facebook page, and they were constantly on top of all the rude and horrible comments people tried to put on her Facebook page that I set up. This page was meant to help find her, not accuse Remy of doing anything or not doing anything. I am a good friend who set up this page and why would I want hateful mean comments being said on it. What friend would want hateful mean comments being said about their friend? I know I wouldn’t. It seemed after awhile after the hateful mean comments and even quoting comments Remy made on his personal Facebook page, the mean comments started to be directed to Cynthia Caron. It was AWFUL to see this happen to such a WONDERFUL person and organization. This woman and her staff, spend hours upon hours of their time, NOT being paid, but by SELF SERVICE to OTHERS… and try to help families with missing family members. What is so awful is, that close family, friends and these people who are thinking they are helping, did not know the personal information and the private police investigation that were and is currently happening. These things are still NOT disclosed to the public. So these horrible accusations are going on, but they do not know what is being held from the public. Remy seemed to be put on the cross by others. I feel when the truth comes out, they still will believe their awful gossiping rumors and I feel their opinions and judgments will not change. I wish I lived closer so I could of helped personally put up fliers, go door to door talking with neighbors, but I couldn’t. All I could do was help put up a Facebook page and keep sharing her photo and information with friends of mine on Facebook. I was BLESSED by ANGELS from the LostNMissing Organization to come SAVE us from the media, etc. They were and are a Godsend! I wish I was closer to have attended the wonderful Shining Hope event that LostNMissing put together for Jenny. Only Remy, his children, his parents and close friends attended this event. No one from Jenny’s side of the family or others who claimed to want to find Jenny (and setting up the other Facebook page), ever attended this event. These other judgmental people, family members, etc, did not come to support Jenny’s husband and her children. I feel that is very sad. It was a beautiful event from the photos that were posted. It was still criticized by others on the other Facebook page. Cynthia Caron and LostNMissing is now being crucified by these judgmental people. Some of them have also put fake Facebook profiles up so no one even knows who they are. It’s pretty freaky, that these judgmental people are out there, and creating a horrible horrible mess with this all… and keep putting up fake profiles of who they are, and hiding themselves. It’s scary. Some of these Facebook members from the other site are even stalking Remy, his children and close friends of his. This is scary. Remy, his children, family and friends, are already going through a horrible ordeal as it is. Why should they feel their lives are in jeopardy as well? The only SAVIOR from the whole media mess and wars was and is Cynthia Caron and her LostNMissing organization. She seriously is doing this out of her LOVING and KIND HEART to help those families who are in pain and suffering from a missing family member. PLEASE… do not read or believe these hateful comments. Cynthia saved Remy, his children, family and close friends from the media wars that took place. I am sure this is the worst she has ever seen. I hope it’s the only one she will ever see. But she is there to HELP, she has a lot of information, a lot of guidance, love, understanding to you and your family, if your family member is missing. She will guide you through anything and everything you need help with. It’s hard when you feel like there’s nothing you can do, and your numb and feel like you can’t move. LostNMissing will HOLD your HAND… and guide you through this! PLEASE let them help you! I would give my recommendation to ANYONE and EVERYONE who has a family member that is missing. I pray you don’t have to deal with that. But if it does… she is an ANGEL… I believe my Heavenly Father sent her to help us… He sends people here on the earth to help each other to not let us go through the pain and trials alone. Please contact LostNMissing…

I simply want to add to my first review, now that I've had some time to truly get started as a volunteer for Lost N Missing...having had not only the pleasure, but the HONOR of being part of this remarkable organization I am blown away by the work they, and especially LnM's founder and president Cynthia Caron does on a daily basis for the countless family members of those who are missing. Reading the attacks brought on by a very select few who have organized a mob style defamation of character against both Mrs. Caron and her organization breaks my heart. It makes me truly question their agenda and what they are hoping to gain by such malicious actions - do they think all of the families who receive the help of Lost N Missing would be better off if they somehow were ever able to dismantle the company? Do they believe that those who are missing would be better off without the aid and awareness that I, countless other volunteers and Cynthia work so hard to achieve for them? Do they believe that the hope we try to instill,\or the support that we do all we can to offer is all for nothing? Because while having worked for LnM, while having even just read the NUMEROUS glowing reviews that family members have taken time out to written during such horrific times in their lives, I know that the work we do is not only needed, important, selfless, and at the highest quality possible - but that without Lost N Missing this country would be at a huge disadvantage. After years of building this organization to what it is, and the hope of what it can continue to grow into - how sad and discouraging it much be for the founder who has poured her heart and soul into helping others, to have to fear that accepting one case has potentially had grave consequences for all the other future cases to come. With all of this being said - again I just want to put much emphasis on how proud I am of myself for being a part of this non profit organization, and what a truly honoring and humbling experience it was to have even been asked in the first place! No matter what I pray that Mrs. Caron is able to continue her work, and that those who are obsessed with tearing her down find compassion and humanity within themselves to think before they act - to look at the big picture before they are so quick to judge and point fingers at someone elses efforts, and ask themselves where were they, and what did they do to help in the case that's being referred? Because having been there from day 11 of Jennifer Ramsaran's disapearence, until her body was found and who still is in contact with friends, her children and husband - I saw first hand the endless efforts made by LnM to help aid in any efforts to bring Jennifer home, I witnessed the hours upon hours that went into trying to correct lies and fabrications so the correct information was being put out there and rumors were being corrected. I saw who it was that was on television pleading for support, and who was not. So where were all of you who are pointing fingers and being critical? Were you raising money for fliers, billboards, etc? Were you doing interviews or speaking endlessly with anyone you could to bring awareness? Were you being attacked privately and professionally for not a single just reason? Were you sitting down next to or speaking with the young children who in the end lost their mom? Because I know Cynthia was! I know that I was! So again trying to be as respectful as possible - I can only ask WHERE WERE YOU? With that all being said I hate every time I get assigned a new task and wish there was no need for the position I have within Lost N Missing, I wish we all lived in a world where Cynthia's services were no where near as in demand as they are....but that's not the case, and the fact is that this organization is needed more and more on a daily basis...so I can only hope and pray that the work we do continues, and that we're able to for future years and years to come be able to still do all we can for those who are missing and to support their families! Again thank you for starting this organization to begin with Mrs. Caron, and I thank you with my entire heart that you saw something in me that filled the high expectations and standards you hold for those who assist in the work you do. To the families I've already worked with and the families I will meet in the future - my heart aches for you, and I will always, as everyone else at Lost N Missing does, give 100% into doing all I can for you and your loved one! Blessings!

I first became introduced to Lost N Missing, and Cynthia Caron about 6 weeks ago and was working closely with Mrs Caron to aid in a case that I had been introduced to by members of a family whom needed assistance. Due to the unbelievable professionalism, dedication and amazing work this organization does and that I was seeing first hand, I inquired about becoming a full time volunteer and was humbled and honored to have been accepted as part of the LNM team, taking on the role of Event Coordinator. I am not only looking forward to beginning work with this organization, again I am honored to be part of such an amazing group of people. If God Forbid I was ever in a situation where i needed assistance from an organization such as this, I could only pray that LNM would be able to come to my aid. Mrs. Caron is one of the single most dedicated volunteers that I have not only come in contact with, but have ever heard of - and recently seeing this organizations 5 star rating being lowered by some hateful people or for all we know just one or two people with many accounts, all in the span of one or two days - all regarding one case - is gut wrenching....because before looking into joining this team, I read countless reviews, looked over countless cases they have worked on, and without Lost N Missing this country would be a much sadder place - with much less help offered to those in need! Again it is with great excitement, dedication and honor that I look forward to diving in and aiding in this cause.

Who's the bully here?

Conversation started March 23
Patricia Powell Becker
I am Jennifer Renz Ramsaran's aunt. Why am I banned from posting on her L&M site?

8:06am
Patricia Powell Becker
Let me rephrase, Why was I banned from posting there?

10:32am
Cynthia Caron
Patricia, I have 3 other Adm and myself and Remy's friend who are ADM on that site. I have no idea who banned you nor why. I only know that there was a few days that a ton of people were posting horrible things and turning that page into a circus and many were banned. Fact is, I also know posts disappeared that was not from anyone but from a Facebook glitch as my own posts disappeared. One post in particular was a beautiful poem that I wrote, and wrote it directly on the page not copied and pasted, and it even disappeared. I believe that is when I wrote on the page that posts were disappearing.
Many people do not know the truth as it pertains to those who were ADM the HFJR page. Nobody knows the horrible and cruel things they did to draw Joann into their web of deceit. I have asked her very kindly on a number of occasions to call me or to listen to what I know and what I've seen....and all the screenshots that I have collected to show proof that what she said that I said and/or did about Jennifer is all blatant lies.
This attack against my company is not just a malicious campaign by Kevin and Tracy...but is a full legal problem in so many ways as they have falsely called and made reports (and put it in writing to me) to the Attorney General of NH.
So not only am I being maliciously attacked, my company attacked, my name and person attacked....but nobody and I mean nobody ever bothered to come to me direct and say..."what is going on?" or "why was I banned?".......instead, people used their pain, hurt and anger by attacking me. What is mind boggling is why Joann would repeat their words knowing full well what they are saying is false. NEVER did I contact Carol and demand to know (incessantly) if Jenn was "mentally ill" and never did I phone her and never did I write her over and over and harass her. I sent Carol one message to discuss the Shining Hope Event and I have that one message.
That page was shut down as I was told from my staff that yesterday they were planning campaigns against the Sheriff Dept of "flooding them" with calls and demanding answers as to why Remy has not been arrested yet. They also wrote a lot of stuff about Remy's dad. (I don't know what was written or said I did not see any of it but was told what happened.) I also know the District Attorney was well aware of the problems on that site as they were writing information that pertained to the case and investigation and at that...their information was wrong.
I cannot expand further than that but can only say if I had the "power" to have shut that page down...believe me...I would have had it shut down at the get go...the very moment I learned the lies that Kevin Ryan was telling Joann....and the 11 screen names that Jillian has gathered and used to cause malicious havoc in numerous sites. Did they think this was my first missing person to be a potential homicide victim? Or my first case in which a family was divided? Or our first time representing someone that potentially could have been the one who caused harm to the missing loved one? I knew I needed to keep 100% accurate records from the start, all documentation and all screenshots. In the meantime while their "worldwide professional PI and his sidekick TracyakaJillianakaJackakaJennifer professed to have gotten two billboards...of which nobody ever saw and you know as well as I they would have posted photos of it....lied and said that Remy and I halted the searches....of which she admitted that Cobb told her no at the get go...and just kept spinning a web of deceit that was NOT about Finding Jennifer (as what did they really do to find her? Lie and say they were trompsing through fields?
The really "funny" one was when she said she was at the apartments and hanging posters and talked door to door to all the residents ! Ironically she picked the perfect time to say she was there...it was when WE were there and trust me when I say...she was NOT there and there were NOT posters there except the ones we put up and photographed. She wrote that she interviewed the residents and Jenn's car was there no more than two days??? And Joann wonders why the site was taken down?
I have to tell you Patricia....in any other case....and we do over 300 families per year of which 12 - 15 are usually of this magnitude.....I am still amazed that she was not arrested for interference of a criminal investigation. Any other Sheriff and State Police that I have worked with would have given her ONE warning and once it was not obeyed...would have been arrested and charged. They are both very lucky from that aspect. Course it's not over for them yet as now they do have to answer to what they did to me, my company and my work.
I do have numerous screen shots if you're interested in seeing some of the truth. All I tried to do was PROTECT ALL of Jennifer's family...including Joann, Carol and Tom...from what I knew about them and Patricia....I'm not being arrogant when I say this....I am saying this from experience...none of what happened would have. Joann and her family did NOT need all that drama and interference and I certainly did not need to have experienced such awful harassment against my company and myself.

Patricia Powell Becker
Wow, not the information that I expected. So...,I ask again. I am Jennifer Renz Ramsaran's aunt. Can you find out why was I banned from posting on her L&M site?
BTW, I have no clue about who many of the people are that you speak of above. I know my sister-in-law, brother-in-law, my nieces & nephew-in-law but I'm out of the loop about what you are talking about above. I see the family members about once a year. The last time I saw them, before March 5, 2013, was at Tom's 70th birthday celebration.

2:13pm
Cynthia Caron
But you are not banned from that site??? I went and looked. Are you talking about Jennifer L. Ramsaran - Missing Person ???
Because you are not banned. Posts that disappeared did not mean banned. I did change the settings for a period of time so that NO posts were made when Jennifer's earthly body was located as we couldnt keep up with the negative posts. IT was better to block all posting. I just went and looked and Patricia, you are not a blocked person.

2:14pm
Cynthia Caron
Please go and look and when I get back home in an hour if you are still blocked/banned let me know and I will have to check further. I have to tell you honestly that it is very difficult to keep up with Facebook and their ever changing ways.

2:18pm
Cynthia Caron
If it were not for the outreach of the public to see our missing loved ones. I would not even be on here. Also, here are some screenshots. Please tell me where Joann can possibly state that I was unprofessional to the family? I will send more later.

2:31pm
Patricia Powell Becker
I have no clue as to what your interaction has been with the family or your relationship with them is.
I know that I WAS blocked from posting on that site, but am no longer blocked at Jennifer L. Ramsaran - Missing Person. That's why I rephrased from "am" to "was" banned. I can't find my few posts that I put on there though. Has the name of that site been changed from when I posted?
BTW, I can't see those screen shots, too tiny for my eyesight.

2:47pm
Cynthia Caron
I don't know where posts went or my poem. Fact is even the earlier from missing us gone, however....I know how ours are gone because when we make posters of missing we post and upload on our site first. The reason is those who share will have friends who share and their friends...etc. So when located we delete from our page which then deletes from anyone else who may have it. It also takes the comments away and is also deleted with the poster. It has to be done that way else posters will be shared six months from now and the person is no longer missing.

2:50pm
Patricia Powell Becker
The posts on the site only date back to Feb 22

2:56pm
Cynthia Caron
Unfortunately I had only one interaction with Jenn's mom and she wanted nothing to do with my company or help. Jenns sister never responded until after body found and has been very upset and has posted a lot of things she believes from two Internet bloggers of which one professes to be a private investigator and I have a personal libel case w my attorney now for blatant lies they've told and done and for cyber harrassnent against me and my nonprofit company. Apparently Joann chooses to believe them? I am so very sorry for the loss of your niece . My own daughter only a few years younger. I cannot imagine.

2:59pm
Cynthia Caron
Libel is Against the two people. Not Joann.
Yes I gave you more info as I thought your message was going to start harassing me as I've been getting people from the other site who think we I shut it down.

3:15pm
Patricia Powell Becker
I'm quite sure that during the time that I was blocked from posting on that site that I was able to see other people posting to the site.

3:27pm
Cynthia Caron
Any person who had problems should have contacted me either via Facebook or email...even through our website. I can't answer to who, why or how you were not able to post?

I am also a cousin to Jennifer Ramsaran. I would like to address several of the issues that arise from the previous posts. Kudos, Lindsay, I feel that your post was well-written, civil, and to the point. I am one of the family members that was blocked from posting on the Lost-n-Missing facebook page. The morning after Jenny's body was located, information regarding this was posted on facebook. The admin of the Lost-n-Missing page lambasted the Help Find Jennifer Ramsaran site for posting the information, claiming that the family had not been notified. I simply stated that our family did know Tuesday evening, and that I received my phone call by 5:30 A.M. on Wednesday morning from a family member so that I would not get to work and find out. For this, I was blocked. In fact, later that entire post was removed. This is just one of many examples that I can think of in which the admin of the site has mistreated family members. That same day, an aunt of Jenny's from her mother's side contacted me and said she had been blocked as well for asking questions about what was posted.

Numerous family members have informed me that they feel harassed, specifically by Cynthia. They feel that she was argumentative with and even aggressive toward them. I was also the family member informed by an employee of the newspaper in question that Cynthia did in fact reveal the information, and then tell the reporter, "By the way, that's off the record."

My biggest complaint is that Cynthia took into account the word of only one member of this very large family, and took those words at gospel truth. All the family is asking for is some open-mindedness and a willingness to consider that the real truth may be something other than what she is hearing.

Jo ann has NEVER requested that any of us make any posts regarding this issue. This is something that has been highly upsetting to many of us, to the point that some are incapable of responding because they are so hurt emotionally by Cynthia's actions.

Lindsay is very well-informed, reads many sites regularly, and has screen shots on her phone of posts that were made, and then removed. So, yes, she has the information to back up what she is saying. Other family members have emails with the postings that we were sending to each other that have since been taken down from facebook. There are MANY of us...plenty to catch what has been put up before it is removed.

I am sincerely happy to see that other families have had good experiences with this organization, but as for me and my family, we cannot recommend this organization to anyone. It saddens me to say, as this is such a traumatic event for any family, and one would hope that an organization trying to help would bring hope and help, not chaos and emotional distress.

From Karen Krepps, Board of Directors: LostNMissing Inc. A public claim of harassment made against someone is a VERY serious matter that could work to not only destroy a totally innocent persons reputation, but can also have a very negative impact on the lives of everyone that surrounds that person. Such a claim therefore must be substantiated with factual, verifiable proof, not rumor, gossip, innuendo or simply a belief in the claims of ones family. While it may very well be true that some of your family did "feel" harassed... IF they weren't factually being harassed those feelings are NOT valid. Correcting the record or correcting a printed falsehood on a public forum or social network is NOT harassment even if the person or persons posting the inaccuracies or falsehoods repeatedly ask not to be corrected. Posting "A" message in response to a message that has been placed on a board in public forum or on social network page is NOT harassment. Sending someone "A" private message via a social network, and responding to their responses is NOT harassment. Accepting "A" phone call from someone and asking that they have their wife call them so that they can explain the organizations services, is NOT harassment Fact is there has not been one single ounce of evidence presented by any of the negative review writers (or anyone else any place) that would support a claim of harassment or bullying done at the hand of Cynthia or LNM, because neither Cynthia or LNM has EVER harassed or bullied anyone. . That you included the following in your "review" reveals to me the real root cause of the issues that you and your family have with Cynthia and LNM....quoting you: "My biggest complaint is that Cynthia took into account the word of only one member of this very large family, and took those words at gospel truth. All the family is asking for is some open-mindedness and a willingness to consider that the real truth may be something other than what she is hearing." As in those two sentences you have stated that it wasn't that Cynthia or LNM did anything wrong, it was that she/they DID in fact maintain their professionalism by keeping their focus directed on the hope that Jennifer would be found alive at a time when your family's focus was apparently only on the alternative (finding a body, and not an alive Jennifer). Perhaps your family found it antagonistic that we would be willing to work directly with the person that you and your family had decided was responsible for Jennifer's death (please note that this was decided by your family several weeks before LNMs involvement in the case)??? And perhaps what antagonized your family most was that for reasons they apparently did not understand Cynthia did in fact publicly express a belief (in regard to Jennifer's husband) that opposed your families own belief??? But for the children's sake, for your family's sake, and most especially for Jennifer's sake we hoped first that she would be found alive, and when she wasn't we prayed that her murderer would be found to be a complete stranger. We could never have maintained a focus on finding an alive Jennifer had we capitulated to your family's apparent desire for us to view her husband as a murderer. Can you not see how the two positions directly conflict with one another...how could we keep her children, her family or the public hopeful that she would be found alive if we had already decided that he was her murderer???? And what if your family was wrong? What if she had been found alive? How professional would it have been for us to capitulate to your family's desire for us to treat her husband as a murderer and had we willingly hopped on that 'let's judge, try, and convict him through social network media bandwagon' only to have her found alive? Even after she was found deceased it would have still been extremely unethical for us to jump upon that bandwagon. As what if the autopsy report combined with LEs investigation had cleared him completely of any and all wrong doing or had netted them an arrest, confession and conviction of someone else? What would be said of our "professionalism" then?? That is not to say that we did not recognize that it was possible that Remy could be found responsible for her death, but we also recognized that it was possible that someone else connected or unconnected to her life could be found responsible for her death. As I said we had no pre-existing bias and had been provided no greater reason to suspect him for her murder than we were given to suspect anyone else of being responsible for her murder. If there were reasons of substance for why your family so strongly believed that Jennifer had been murdered and that Remy was responsible, those reasons were NEVER shared with us by anyone from your family. As everyone in your family rejected our involvement from the moment we became involved which was a full 6 weeks after Jennifer went missing. Fact is we reached out and provided contact information to members of your family and requested to speak and meet with them and (outside of the very brief exchange between Cynthia & Jennifers mom) the ONLY person who responded to that request was Jennifer's father and that phone conversation had to be cut short because he called while Cynthia was driving to an appointment that could not be broken. Please, please, please understand that none of what I am saying is being said with the intent of disparaging anyone, but instead ONLY for the specific purpose of clearing up the record by trying to get you to see things from another vantage point. We wanted nothing more than to find an alive Jennifer, and are heartbroken for your family that our hope did not become a reality. We wanted very much to work with your family, yet understood ahead of time that the possibility existed that Jennifer's mother's, father's, and sister's pain & feelings of vulnerability would be so intense that the only people they may have wanted to work with was LE. We did not take any offense at that, and were very respectful of those feelings. But it was our hope that they would have welcomed our assistance. We cannot be blamed that they didn't. Beyond knowing that in most cases like this it is common for the husband to be the first person looked at with suspicion, we don't know how or why this division between Jennifer's family and her husband even existed. As there was no evidence available to us that supported or revealed that this division existed prior to Jennifer's missing. In fact on the face it appeared that the family was very closely knitted as Jennifer and her husband lived next door to her parents and it seemed like they all had a good relationship. Looking over the information we were able to access from all outward appearances Jennifer was living within a safe and stable environment that was filled with family and love. And up to and until her body was found no one from her family ever suggested the opposite existed. In fact each family member picked up the brush and helped paint a portrait of a very happy, very content, well loved, very stable, very honest, very outgoing, highly thought of, highly respected, very intelligent, very active, very talented (even taught knitting classes), very faithful, very accomplished, very personable, very protective and "Mommy" oriented (and hands on children involved), very devoted, community minded, Girl Scout involved, church involved (even taught Sunday school) one who had strong and bonded relationships with all who loved her and all whom she loved, was hard working, fun, spiritual...in other words EVERYONE in your family has painted a portrait of Jennifer that presented her as being the exact OPPOSITE of a controlled, living in fear, beaten down, weakened, victimized, trapped, or abused type of individual. The facts are what they are, and the facts are that we had NEVER been given any reason whatsoever for not maintaining the goal of finding an alive Jennifer. Because LE never attached to the case a suspicion of "foul play", never named anyone as a suspect, have kept tight-lipped throughout the investigation, discouraged any public searches, etc.... they gave us no reason to alter or rethink that goal. Because all the information available us presented to us a well functioning, close knit family and presented Jennifer as the exact opposite of a controlled, living in fear, beaten down, weakened, victimized, trapped, or abused type of individual, it gave us no reason to alter or rethink that goal. Because your family refused to work with or even talk with us, they to gave us no reason to alter or rethink that goal. So we held strong to that goal and remained focused only on finding an alive Jennifer. Not because we took sides in anything. Not because we refused to be open minded. Not because we refused to consider a negative outcome. Not because we refused to consider the possibility of a guilty Remy or a guilty friend or relative....but instead ONLY because we had been given no reason not to continue to hope that an alive Jennifer would in fact be found. It has been thrown at us numerous times that we did not know Jennifer. No we didn't... however fact also is that we did not know her family, or her friends, or her husband either and therefore we did not have any pre-existing bias regarding anyone. And it needs also to be noted that for every person who did know them and had expressed to us a belief that Remy had murdered her, there was another person who knew them who expressed to us a belief that he was a victim himself and had nothing to do with her missing status or what turned out to be her murder. And having what some have called a goofy, a gregarious, a narcissistic personality and an obsession with running and working out makes no one a murderer. Nor does committing adultery make anyone a murderer...if it did considering the current divorce rates and rates of infidelity in this nation, we would have more people in prison than out of prison. Yes, it is morally wrong to commit adultery, but it is not a crime, and it makes no one a murderer, but instead just an adulterer. It also HAS to be understood that we have had cases where the loved ones left behind are 100% certain that their loved one simply ran away, as they had ran away several times before, only to find out later that they had not ran away, but instead had been murdered. As well, we have had cases where loved ones are 100% certain that their missing loved one met with foul play (because they believe to know for a fact that they would never ever leave them, their children, their ailing mother, handicapped sibling, their successful business, etc.) and are 110% certain that they know who is responsible, only to later find out that their loved one was alive and well the entire time that they were absolutely certain that they would never willingly go missing. You name it we have had it or at least heard about it. It is not EVER us that is not open minded in regard to the numerous possibilities that exist in missing person cases. Let's face it, if we hadn't remained open-minded as to ALL of those possibilities in regard to Jennifer's case and instead had closed off our minds to limit our thinking only to Remy murdering her as being the only possibility, no one in your family would have had a problem with us or anything that we were doing. To conclude; there is absolutely no reason for anyone to harbor so much ill will for Cynthia or LNM. Nothing that Cynthia/LNM did or didn't do had anything at all to do with Jennifer's missing status or death. Cynthia/LNM harassed no one. They disparaged no one. They bullied no one. They did not hamper the investigation in any way (but may in fact have inadvertently aided it). They did not cause your family's pain, they did not exploit it, nor did they do anything to either intentionally or unintentionally intensify or trivialize it. They DID try to protect your family from having their pain exploited by an unlicensed, unprincipled, self-appointed, rogue who refused to even identify themselves. They DID fully identify themselves and offered to work with the people running the JFJR site. (side note: since there are at present 1,100+ members of the JFJR site and all except one person has their name identified with each msg they post, don't you think that trying to use the excuse of fear for her safety as an excuse for hiding her identity/utilizing multiple aliases kind of raises eyebrows and falls short as being a rational excuse??) They DID try to protect your family from having their pain commercialized for profit by un-vetted, unregistered, unknowns who use multiple aliases to skirt around and avoid the legal requirements and accountability involved in taking in donations and holding fundraiser's, etc. They DID recommend that professional SAR's be used. They DID try to discourage public searches from being done so that any and all possible or probable evidence would be protected from removal or contamination. They DID try to prevent the whole investigation process from being turned into a three ring circus by overzealous crime solver wannabes (my goodness Tracy was encouraging people to ignore LE's request of no public searches and was even arranging for 4-wheelers etc. to be brought in by anyone who wanted to take part. Thankfully Joann was able to get through to her as Cynthia had tried to no avail). They DID tell people not to donate through the JFJR site (where there is no accountability at all in place), and told them to instead to donate either directly to the family or through an account set up by the family and offered help in setting up such an account (apparently that didn't sit well with Tracy as she admitted on her latest "review" that this was the reason she blocked Cynthia from the JFJR site...Quoting her: "You were highly vocal about and against people donating to the family via our site. You posted numerous posts telling people NOT to donate to the family via our site. Then, and only then did I block you from that site...." Why should that have even bothered her, let alone caused her to block Cynthia?) While I can't claim to speak for all, I know I speak for most in saying that your family does have the family of LostNMissing's deepest and most heartfelt sympathy. While we know for certain that someone is guilty for having murdered Jennifer, and want desperately for justice to be served, we continue to hope and pray that the guilty party is not Remy as we can't imagine a more horrific ending to Jennifer's life than to be murdered by the one person who vowed to both her and God, that for the remainder of their own life, to always love, honor and protect her. We can also not imagine a more horrific thing for their children to have to bear for the rest of their precious lives than to have to carry with them the burden of the knowledge that their father murdered their mother. Having said that, while we do not "want" him to be guilty IF in fact he is guilty we also and most definitely hope and pray that he will be made to answer fully, and in the most punishing of ways, for this horrific crime! While Remy has in fact been charged with this inexcusable and horrific crime, from all outward signs it appears that the case against Remy is built entirely on circumstantial evidence meaning that not even the Sheriff's Dept and investigators, can say without any reasonable doubt that Remy in fact murdered Jennifer. So how can we?? This may or may not change depending upon the evidence collected and presented in a court of law (which despite the claims of the rumor-mills has NOT been released and is only in the hands of the DA and Defense Attorneys). Therefore we must all wait until trial, listen to all evidence and then put it in the hands of a jury to determine if in fact they believe that the evidence (circumstantial or otherwise) is so overwhelming as to support a guilty verdict. As in our system of justice one is not required to prove their innocence, so innocence must be presumed in the absence of having evidence (circumstantial or otherwise) to support a determination of guilt beyond that of a reasonable doubt. Regardless, no matter what one may believe or not believe, whether he is determined by a jury of his piers to be guilty or not guilty, …..no matter the outcome of all of this…..LNM and Cynthia Caron, and her staff, have nothing whatsoever to do with Remy's or anyone else's guilt or innocence. May God be with your family and comfort them through this very trying time. Karen L. Krepps, BOD-LNM

 My name is Lindsay Renz and I am Jennifer Ramsaran's cousin.   I've had a lot of trouble deciding what to write about Lost N Missing and Cynthia Carron as its representative-- not because I'm afraid Ms. Carron will threaten to sue me like she has several others, but because there are so many examples of Ms. Carron's unprofessional behavior since she began acting as a representative of Jenny’s husband.  I’ve decided to limit myself to four examples.

1)      On the Facebook page that Ms. Carron administrated she frequently alluded to “changes” in Jen’s personality over the past 9 months implying that those changes were a reason for Jenny to run away and leave her children—something anyone who knew Jen knew was impossible.   We couldn’t understand why Ms. Carron would go to such lengths to disparage the victim’s character.  In addition, several family members had their posts deleted or blocked.  Given that they typically started with “I’m Jenny’s [insert family relationship]” I really have trouble believing that Ms. Carron was unaware she was blocking family members.   I also have serious concerns about Ms. Carron’s ability to manage a Facebook account, given how many posts were mysteriously deleted.   Ms. Carron frequently claimed that she was not deleting posts so the rate at which they vanished was concerning—so much so that I started taking screen shots of everything I could.

2)      When a local reporter obtained information about blood evidence found in Jenny’s van and her husband’s affair, Ms. Carron confirmed it for him and suggested that the blood was from a nose bleed. She then characterized the affair as a one-time, alcohol fueled incident that was irrelevant as Ms. Carron was certain that Jenny was unaware of it.   Clearly Ms. Carron felt the affair was irrelevant as she included the mistress in a web video memorializing Jen.    In my mind, the correct response would be no comment or to refer the reporter to the police.   Regardless,  I don’t know how she could make either statement given she admitted that the police were not providing her case information and it‘s impossible for anyone to say what Jenny knew or didn’t know unless Jenny had shared that with them herself.  Ms. Carron never met Jenny and therefore it is impossible that Jenny would’ve confided in her.   

3)      Ms. Carron’s obvious antagonism toward others in the community who made efforts to find Jenny and make others aware that she was missing.    While I understand people have strong feelings, I would have assumed that Ms. Carron, as a professional, would have been able to control herself.  I have closely followed “the Facebook wars” as well as the websleuths boards where Ms. Carron posted.   As far as I could see, the only person acting antagonistically was Ms. Carron.   

4)      On the websleuths board, posting under the screen name “Lavanda Dolce,” Ms. Carron’s unprofessionalism was even more blatant.   At one point she posted that my uncle (Jenny’s father) didn’t want her reported missing.  What Ms. Carron omitted was that this was at 5:30PM.  Jen was due home at 5PM and her planned trip was 1-1 ½ hours each way.

Perhaps Ms. Carron had good intentions and things just got out of her control.  I don’t know.  Based on some of the older reviews here, there are a lot of people who believe that Ms. Carron and Lost N Missing helped them.  All I can say is that I would tell anyone that I knew to avoid Lost N Missing, especially if there are questionable circumstances in your loved one‘s disappearance.  What I do know is that Ms. Carron’s actions and words have been deeply hurtful to me and my family.

I don’t know exactly what happened to Jenny—I have to trust that the police and district attorney will do their jobs and that our family will see justice served.  At this point the only thing I can do is make people aware of Ms. Carron’s inexplicably unprofessional actions in Jenny’s case and try to spare another family the pain she has caused mine.




Response to Cynthia Carron, 4/11/2013:

Ms. Carron, I wrote this post based upon comments made by you or those acting on behalf of your organization posting on the Facebook page you were acting as admin on and via other social media. While I was not commenting on either facebook page until very recently I can assure you I read them and the websleuths board several times per day. I am confident in my facts and stand by everything I have written above.

In regards to #4 above, unless you are going to claim that you were not posting as "Lavanda Dolce" you did claim that my uncle told Jenny's husband not to report her missing after he was called in AZ. I can't say for sure who gave you that information but it was posted by "Lavanda Dolce." I don't appreciate being called a lier.

In regards to your discussion with Mr Mahony, I read both the article and your response to him. I don't believe you gave him the information-- I'm sure he got that elsewhere, but I believe you confirmed it. However, you are correct, I wasn't involved in that phone call and don't know the exact content. But the simple fact is after everything you have said and done in the past few months I find him to be far more creditable.

This is a site to review non-profits and specifically requests candid and personal reviews. I am writting a review that includes my opinion and the reasons I arrived at those opinions. I can assure you that my cousin, Joann Buff did not write a single word in this review or request that I post it, so I would appreciate it if you could direct your comments/complaints to me.

Joann Buff, I am going to ask you for the last time to kindly stop harassing me and my organization. The comments you keep sharing among your friends and Jennifer's cousins are absolutely false and enough is enough of whatever games you are playing. If you have a problem with how your sisters case was managed you need to talk to all those involved who made official police statements and stop acting like I had the power of the media as to what they wrote, the power of the investigation…as to how it was done… and the power of whatever else you think I had. You continually keep posting wrong information and egging others to do the same. You've made enough libel statements that I have already expressed to you to stop this harassment...through the Chenango County Sheriff office (which I also cc'd) and you have the copy of my attorney's name and number as you were cc'd in the same communication and you are fully aware that I have held back from adding you for the libelous statements and harassment and that was ONLY out of courtesy. You've allowed a full week to go by and now are drumming up the same harassment again. Hopefully one of your friends, that you are directing to reading all your "fun" negative postings will have a conversation with you regarding the importance and seriousness of harrasing someone online, posting blatantly false information and will explain to you that libel is a serious matter. Please cease, else the courtesies stop here.

LostNmissing came in to my life when I most needed the support of someone. Not only did they take their time to listen to me but they also went above and beyond their call of duty to help and assist in spreading the word of my missing son Angel "Ito" Garcia missing status amoung other services. LostNmissing provided all the needed materials to mark the one year anniversary of my son's disappearance, they have and still continue to provide me as well as the rest of the family and friends with personal attention.
I am pleased to say that LostNmissing have jumped through many hoops to help obtain a donation of a billboard to help spread the word of my son's disappearing and thanks to their hard work and commitment they succeded. They not only volunteer to help with the Vigil, and the billboard but they also offered their services to help with any upcoming searches should we have any one come up.
LostNmissing continuosly update and spread any new information via the internet through a page that they have created for my son, their own page and facebook.
LostNmissing with their genuine, dedicated and persistance way they have helped me, my family and friends not only to understand the meaning of the word "volunteer" but also the value of volunteering. There are many things that we cherish in this live, for many of us is our families, our homes, our jobs, life itself and for others it's just about what they have or don't have but for me the act of GIVING is one of the most beautiful guesture of man kind. Thank you Cynthia for your hard work and thank you to the wonderfull team of Angels who also helped very much to make everything possible.
God bless you all!
Love, Laura

Cynthia and the crew at LostNMissing have been so helpful. They have taught me so much and I am forever grateful for their amazing support. Tomorrow, Saturday April 6th we will be hosting my moms Shining Hope Event. Sunday the 7th my mom will be missing for 9weeks. LostNMissing, Thank you so much for all of your dedication, hard work, and compassion. It takes amazing people to volunteer their time to help a stranger try to locate their missing loved one, and never ask for anything in return. Thank you for everything.

I have been assisting this organization for a month doing internet work and have only seen one incident that has caused an uproar. I do not know the details of that incident, but I do know that a lot of families have been assisted by this organization without any negative issues. I have also had not had any negative issues dealing with the organization. There are two sides to every story and this is not the forum for a dispute to be settled in. This is an organization that assists missing persons families in an attempt to find their loved ones. I have seen this work first hand and have not noticed any problems, only the sharing of missing person information on the internet to assist in finding and trying to bring home missing persons.

My step father went missing in 2011 and it felt like a wild goose chase. Lostnmissing not only helped my family emotionally, they set me up on a radio talk show, helped fund an event to get flyers out and stood by my side even when some of my extended family decided not to. My family is eternally grateful for the work this organization has done for my family.
The founder, Cynthia Caron, spoke with me directly. Every inch of my experience I was able to talk with her and her dedicated staff. They changed my life, and I truly believe that the work they helped my family with led to the finding of my step father.
In a time of need when someone that is a staple in your everyday life goes missing, you don't need people to tell you everything is going to be OK, you need people that have gone through what you have, people who have the same dreams and hopes to find missing people, someone who actually can fathom even a morsel of what your going through. The staff at lostnmissing are those people. They have changed my life, and the life of those around me. I can not thank them enough for lending me a little bit of their hope, when my well was almost dry.

My first experience with LostNMissing, I had attended a vigil for my friends missing baby girl. After seeing LostNMissing in action, I was so impressed. The lengths that they went to for just one little girl? After speaking briefly at the vigil with my friend, She began telling me how she does not know how she would be getting through this without (Cynthia) LostNMissing. Of course I had already seen the many fliers and many postings from them to spread awareness. At that very moment speaking with the mother of this missing baby girl with tears in her eyes, I became very aware the importance of this organization. So naturally when another friend recently came to me very upset that her Brother in law who had mental illness went missing and she didn't know what to do, I immediately asked her if she had contacted Cynthia from LostNMissing and gave her the information to do that. Literally within the hour I was seeing postings and pleas to share them. With permission this family was contacted by LostNMissing and sent me emails thanking me for putting them in contact. This non profitable organization stuck by this family the entire time. The missing person was found to have committed suicide and yet again, LostNMissing was right there to offer their services and with so much love and care, this family was able to not only have some closure but to have the genuine and continued support from the most amazing people. For this, I am so very grateful and God forbid, If I ever was in this position, I would not just want but NEED them in my corner. Volunteers that go so far above and beyond.

My daughter has been missing for 3 years. No clues, no leads, nothing. LostNMissing came in and created a beautiful new flier for Ali and sent it out to everyone of their contacts and social networking pages. It helped reach so many new people that had not seen or heard of my daughter before. Since then we continue to get new tips. And most of all we continue to have HOPE.

My niece Kelly Armstrong was murdered by her boyfriend Travis Funke. Lost and Missing helped us with the awareness we needed to find her remains. They helped us with a balloon launch and also a poster distribution. Cynthia has been there through this 2 year process by supporting my family and myself with questions. She gave us positive support to not give up and be strong. She was there to hear our cries and even gave a shoulder to cry on. This organization is an A+ in my book. I have been able to call when sad. or email her with my concerns. She helped us to set up searches and directed the family in how to get this all put together. My niece is still missing and Cynthia has helped me not to give up the possibility that she will come home. Maybe not today or next year but I am hopeful because of Lost and missing..

Please let others who choose to be a voice for Jennifer carry on with their good work in peace. The local general public supports them, it does not support an out-of-state, out-of-touch organization like yours.

Being a person involved in the "world of the missing" I have come in contact with LostnMissing on many occasions. I have also followed much of their work.
I have witnessed very empathetic, helpful, well informed. Hard work.
LostnMissing would be the FIRST organization I would recommend any family unfortunate enough to be walking the road of "The Missing".
God Bless.

I would like to address all the nay-sayers of LostnMissing, Inc. & esp., the friends of Jennifer Ramsaran who feel it necessary to spill the second phase of Grief; Anger, all over this review board. When a loved one goes missing it is a very painful experience which I personally am living through everyday. My Mother In-Law went missing last month, and to this day we still have no leads and her whereabouts & car still have not been found. But each and every day I still have hope and faith that one day we will have closure and she will be found.
I am a Funeral Industry professional with many years of experience dealing with families who have lost a loved one as well as losing many friends to tragedies and or disease. I guess you could say I know Death very well, unfortunately. May I suggest you funnel your energies into Grief Counseling and or Grief Therapy to help heal, because the road ahead may be a very difficult one.
There are five stages/psychological responses to dying; 1- Denial, 2- Anger, 3- Bargaining, 4- Depression and 5- Acceptance. I truly am sorry for your loss of Jennifer, but please step back for a moment and reflect on Jennifer's life and love for you.
Now, let me leave you with one of my favorite sayings - "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal"

First of all, none of the above "roles" accurately describes my position. I am the sister of Jennifer Ramsaran whom Cynthia Caron took on as a missing person case from her husband, but not by my family. I cannot supply a complete review at this time due to a pending investigation. I can, however write about Ms. Caron denying that she sent a private investigator to see me regarding the private investigator that I chose to work with on the day that it was confirmed that the body found was indeed my sister's. This PI spent about ten minutes at my brother-in-law's home (her client), then he came to my parents house (next door) and spoke to my husband. He identified himself as working for both Ms. Caron and G. Ramsaran. He gave his name and license number to my husband, re-iterated Caron's repeated efforts to slander the PI advising my family, and then spent another hour at Ramsaran's home. I was so disgusted by this ill-timed visit and lack of compassion from someone who runs a missing person's organization that I contacted both my own PI and also Lt. R. Cobb in charge of my sister's investigation immediately. Caron has contacted me privately regarding this event, accusing me of lying about it. Clearly either she, or this PI, is the person lying. My family feels doubly victimized by this woman in the manner she has spoken on-line about my sister in a degrading manner, deleting several family and friend's posts on my sister's missing Face Book page, and also how she has treated both my mother and I in private correspondence.

Response to Caron’s response below:
Cynthia, I have no wish to speak to someone who has repeatedly falsely accused me of leaking case material to Websleuths w/out proof. No one from WS contacted me to verify someone as an insider. Show me the posts where I supposedly offered inside information. It would be stupid of me to supply info to WS, I have nothing to gain by revealing evidence.

Why should I inquire into any more truth regarding the PI? I saw the man with my own eyes driving out the driveway. He told my husband that he approached both you and Ganesh at the Shining Hope Event offering pro-bono PI services and you accepted after you were assured that he was indeed licensed in NYS. He Identified himself as working for both of you. Therefore, one of you is not telling the truth. It seems to me that you are awfully quick to accuse others and myself of lying w/out inquiring into your own facts. Your attempt to diminish this event by saying it was expected is despicable, but that’s what I’ve come to expect from you. And I personally don’t appreciate the side circus of going after Tracy and Kevin along with the FB wars, which you persist in doing as evidenced here…finding my sister was supposed to be your focus.

Additionally, why should I contact you to settle the matter? You have treated me horribly. I don’t believe you, I don’t’ trust you, and I am certainly not accountable to you in any way.

When I posted my one comment on the JRMP page, I identified myself as Jenny’s sister. My post, “My sister’s case is not a FB page competition. I do not believe that she ran off on her own volition as this site continuously alleges,” was deleted. When someone criticized you or your admin for deleting “the sister’s” post, it was put back up and a response provided that stated (paraphrased): “Show some maturity. We are looking for an ALIVE Jennifer. Her children could be looking here.” There was nothing wrong with my post and it certainly didn’t warrant that response, nor the one that came after it from someone claiming that I “practice to deceive”. Furthermore, I know my family members were identifying themselves on that page and still getting deleted and/or blocked.

You never knew Jennifer, you have no claim to know what “Jennifer would have wanted”. I know she wouldn’t have liked the way you’ve portrayed her on FB or WS. There was no “behavior change” around me or my parents who LIVE NEXT DOOR to her. You accuse people on WS of armchair sleuthing when you yourself are guilty of armchair psychology of my sister’s emotional and mental state.

The malice and cruel behavior I’ve witnessed comes from you, Cynthia.

A fair judge hears both sides before making a decision, yet you made public declarations without hearing Jenny’s side of the story. It was your job to find Jennifer, not to analyze her emotional or mental state, nor to determine who is innocent or guilty. You’re handling of this case is grossly unprofessional.

You owe my family a public apology.


Second response to CC:

I hope this review site is monitoring how you are treating me here Cynthia. I am the sister of a missing person. I have not been polygraphed, nor questioned in my sister’s disappearance, but the people you work with have. More accusations from you again with no proof. Again, what purpose would “my” PI have for leaking info pertinent to the case? An employee w/ the Star told a family member that you did indeed reveal this info to JM, and then were foolish enough to tell him afterwards that it’s off the record.

I just looked up when I posted my one comment on the JRMP and it was 2/13/13, weeks after you took on Jennifer’s case. I was never banned (that I know of), I “unliked” the page after being deleted. The HFJR page was never “my” page Cynthia, but I am glad that you are admitting to having something to do with its disappearance.

This is bordering on harassment.


3rd response:
CC, if you are going to continue to falsely call me a liar, I will continue to respond. Now you’re deleting posts where I proved you incorrect. I have the text, I can supply them for anyone from this site who would like to see them.

I am Eugene Losik’s mother. My son went missing from a hotel area in Boston, where he was staying overnight. Eugene was missing from February of 2010 until November of 2010.

While I HATE to be a mother of a missing young man, I feel so grateful that we got to work with LostNMissing and personally – with Cynthia Caron. We would not know what to do and where to start without her. Without her – I would just sit there next to that hotel and cry for 9 months.

Instead – we worked! We worked together with LostNMissing to look for Gene! In few short days Cynthia arranged for the live scent dog to work on the area where Gene went missing. We had few very well organized fliers distribution events, in the areas where the fliers would not be removed the moment they went out. Cynthia Caron did something absolutely impossible to do without her – she had myself and my husband live on Jane Velez-Mitchell show. That interview helped us to keep the media attention on the case when we needed it most. Cynthia Caron personally walked into some office buildings along the very busy highway near Boston and told them our son’s story, and next thing we knew – a huge banner with Eugene’s picture, and all the information was on display for everyone to see it.

I also wanted to mention that Cynthia is our neighbor, she lives with her family next town from us. We got to know her personally, and her husband, and her two beautiful sons. They live a very humble life in a beautiful modest suburban house with their boys, two dogs and a cat. Cynthia can enjoy her gorgeous backyard and sit next to her husband in front of the fire he puts out every day. Instead she keeps herself very busy helping people in need, in the darkest times of their lives, because she wants to help and knows how! She is an amazing person; generous, smart and very resourceful. Did you know that she holds annual flea markets events where her husband would donate his own personal items to raise money for LostNMissing? Did you know that Cynthia has an account on Ebay where she sells HER OWN items, things she actually needs, and all the proceeds go to LostNMissing? 100% of the proceeds! Did you know that Cynthia often spends her own money so those endless fliers would be of better quality? Who else do you know would do such a thing and use their own money?

She never ever asked for a penny from us… all she did was from the open heart! Cynthia deeply cares about the cause, and is a blessing to all of us!

Thank you, Zhanna. I appreciate your very kind words. I think any family that has worked with myself and my team directly would say that your reference is a true reflection of the passion and drive that myself and all of the Team at LostNMissing shows for those who are facing the trauma of having a missing loved one. We were honored to help in whatever way possible. Hugs, Cynthia and the Team at LostNMissing

Cynthia Caron the founder and owner of LostNMissing has been sending out the following message to various people on Facebook about how she is planning to sue six people for harassment, libel and defamation which was then forwarded to me. I did not receive this message directly. I thought in all fairness considering previous reviews posted here it should be shared. It should be noted I find it disgusting she is apparently using money donated to her organization to assist families of missing persons for lawyer services to accomplish this. I believe suing six people would be very expensive and that the money donated to her organization shouldn't be spent this way, especially when she has brought on the "attacks" by her unprofessional, shocking behavior on the Internet which at times has stooped to bullying in a kind way to force people to do as she requests.

We are in the process of filing a harassment, libel and defamation of character charges against a group of people who publicly wrote they are going to "turn us in" and write letters and false references about myself and my organization, LostNMissing Inc.

One has already begun to do such on GuideStar which is the reporting agency for nonprofits. Reference number 61 written by an anonymous person with the screenname of GregLR is not factual and is more than probably from the same group that the Sheriff Dept is aware of as well as our corporate attorney.

When reviewing our history it is clear this is an attempt to further defame our companies excellent reputation. Please help us bury this terrible "reference" as we are dependable upon GuideStar as our agency that we point families for referrals of our work.

I am devastated and have not slept in two days and keep throwing up over all of this malicious attacks. The link is:

• Now they found GuideStar to post a bad reference on me and while it is only one post so far….my fear is all other 6 people named in the libel case will find it and begin posting too.

They already wrote on Websleuth that they are sending letters to the attorney general in NH to have my company closed, to the BBB and to the IRS.

However, GuideStar is the premium of all nonprofit agencies that oversee nonprofits. It is the huge link on our website so that those can learn of our work by reading referrals.

It is where ANY and ALL companies and grants would go in order for us to obtain a grant.

GuideStar will NOT remove negative posts.

They feel the public has the right to know about an organization.

This is going to crush me.

Here is today's anonymous post and it is completely a blatant lie.

Why are these people doing this to me? :

My brother went missing in Vegas, When the cops wouldn't help us (because he was over 18) LostNMissing did,,,, They were their when not many were, They made and circulated a poster / flyer THEY had made, They helped us when others wouldn't, they called and checked up, Cynthia emailed me often to see how much progress has been made, to see if we heard any new information that she could put out there, and she emailed me to find out if i had found him yet, because of her we had people come in from California that happened to see her information she sent out and they came out on their own to search for my brother, without them / Cynthia we would of had one less resource out there to help spread the information about him missing and as much information out there is a better chance of bringing your loved one home. There is only so much someone can do, and when others didn't do enough in my mind, they helped. Update i will gladly say is that my brother is home, safe. i really do believe part of that is because of the posters / web information that was sent out, because everyone was looking for him, even if it was just a "i saw that face" lets call in to the police kind of moment, and those may be the key to finding someone

I have been following missing persons cases for several months and have recently learned of LostNMissing through the case of Jennifer Ramsaran.

I am appalled at how Mrs. Caron has handled herself in regards to this case. Specifically as to how she continues to post on social media all the while, Jennifer Ramsaran's family is requesting her to STOP.

At what point does one realize how traumatic this is for Jennifer's family? Mrs. Caron seems to have taken this case very personal as she has backed a possible person of interest, Mr. Ramsaran who subsequently has failed his polygraph. While this is not a dispute as to his guilt or not, Mrs. Caron cannot let justice prevail. She is consistently posting on The Help Find Jennifer Ramsaran facebook in a tirade, rivaling a screaming lunatic and just when it's time to step back to her and try to reason, she not only deletes her post but blocks the poster. Very immature and unprofessional.

After researching Mrs. Caron, it seems that she is not all of what she claims to be. Records do not lie.

She may have done a lot of good in other missing persons' cases but in this case, she has dropped the ball. She has been a nightmare! I can't imagine how Jennifer's family must feel as I do not know Jennifer nor have any vested interest other than being a follower of missing people.

Mrs. Caron would be better suited for day time talkshow drama, ala Jerry Springer. I don't find her compassion genuine nor her ability to be drama free, professional, and most importantly TACTFUL. I find her classless and an embarrasment to agencies that are around for the right reasons.

I personally plan on contact the state of NH to confirm that she is legit as well as to file a complaint. She should be ashamed of herself.

LostNMissing is NOT registered with the Attorney General's office in NH, something that is required by LAW of all nonprofits. Per a representative of this office, Cynthia Caron will be receiving a letter in the mail demanding she register within a certain time frame. In addition, as a result of her failure to register her organization, she potentially faces the following actions: subpoena to court, compelling registration, forced release of her financial records, and fines.

It is beyond shady to register, and the most common reason given was that organizations who don't register balk at providing financial information, and any governmental oversight of their agency.

I would like to personally recommend that any family seeking help for their missing loved one, steer clear of Cynthia Caron. She continually creates drama where it doesn’t belong, and will spend valuable time doing so, if anyone doesn’t agree with her. She will waste time and resources on childish online behavior, as if she has nothing better to do.

I have been following the case of the missing mom, Jennifer Ramsaran very closely since the beginning. What I've also been following since the beginning is Cynthia Caron's unprofessional, unethical, and inexcusable behavior as it relates to this case, and especially as it relates to the lack of respect shown to Jennifer and Jennifer’s parents. It has been appalling, at best.

Despite much circumstantial evidence that points otherwise, Cynthia Caron has left no stone unturned in painting Jennifer out to be a reckless mother who purposely abandoned her three young children just prior to Christmas, her daughter's Christmas concert, and her daughter's birthday. Never once did she mention throughout the search for Jennifer, that Jennifer was a Sunday school teacher, taught knitting classes, was a former girl scout leader, nor did she discuss how devoted Jennifer was to her children.

Cynthia Caron has minimized the fact that Jennifer's husband had an affair prior to Jennifer's disappearance, by publicly stating that it was just an "alcohol fueled tryst.” She has stated repeatedly that Jennifer may have left to meet an online lover, was playing online games, and/or that she left because she was "mentally despondent.” She stood strong in her defense of Jennifer’s husband, when all evidence pointed toward foul play (ie. no activity on her credit cards in the over two months since she went missing, no one seeing or hearing from Jennifer, Jennifer’s phone being found tossed on the side of the road by her husband, and her van abandoned with blood in it). She even crafted the unlikely scenario that Jennifer was seen alive a week or so prior to discovery of her body, which was found nude and encased in ice, dumped off the side of a back road in Pharsalia late last month. And she continues to stand strong in defense of Jennifer’s husband, probably for donation purposes.

Cynthia Caron herself vocally expressed outrage (as did Jennifer’s husband) regarding a public search of that area that was set to take place in mid-January. The police were aware of this search, yet Cynthia Caron and Jennifer’s husband team were very vocal about no one searching for Jennifer. They also alerted the media and asked them to print an article asking people not to search, well aware of the fact that searching public land is not illegal. Furthermore, it took Cynthia Caron weeks to secure a donation site for a billboard to be placed over 60 miles away from town, after she kept insisting that billboards cost $30,000. Just prior to this, others were able to secure two free local billboards, not far from where Jen’s body was found.

Cynthia Caron has consistently painted Jennifer in a negative light, deleted any posts on her page that questioned her unscrupulous tactics, and harassed Jennifer's family. Now that Jennifer has been found, she is stating publicly that many people panic after they accidentally cause the death of a loved one, prior to disposing the body, which fittingly paves the way for a quirky defense at best, for Jennifer's husband.

She states that she has lawsuits pending against many people who have spoken out on Jennifer's behalf, the very same people who have worked diligently to try to find Jennifer and spread awareness of her disappearance. To me, this states that she can’t move on, and insists on creating more useless drama, instead of spending that valuable time doing something for the families she says she’s devoted to helping.

I do believe that Cynthia Caron doesn’t understand the definition of libel, nor is she fully aware of the fact that she will be fully liable for the legal expenses incurred by anyone she claims to be suing, once she loses. These bullying tactics may have worked in high school, but this is real life.

Any money donated to this organization is a waste.

If it wasn't for Cynthia Caron and her Organization LostNMissing, the lives of our kids and I would not even be remotely the same as it is now. If only I and the rest of the families who have had loved ones missing (in my case my wife) knew about this incredible organization, we would not have to endure such heart ache alone. Cynthia and her professional volunteer staff provided much needed counseling to the kids and I. Explained what the processes are that were going through and helped us get through every day by taking one day at a time in order for the healing process to begin. I am going to make it a mission in life to raise funds and awareness for LostNMissing as they were there in our hour of need, when people related by blood who calls themselves family were non existent when it came to supporting the kids and I. Please feel free to contact me with any questions as I will be more than happy to expand with further details.

I personally worked with Ms. Caron on the specific case that these trolls are writing about and while they may find it funny to post awful ratings, it should be known that many things occurred on the case between the Sheriff and Ms. Caron that the online bloggers have no clue about. I give Ms. Caron 5 stars for her class and especially for the confidentiality that she has maintained by keeping the truth away from the public on very important factors to help preserve the reputation of a deceased young mother who went missing. While the public is making comments about the husband, of which I believe they can be sued for that too, they do not know the entire story or the facts to the case. Ms. Caron does and has never uttered a word in light of the harassment people are giving her. I also am glad that this is not going by the wayside as Ms. Caron has legal counsel who is in possession of the names of 4 who are spearheading this campaign of hatred. All 4 should hope to have calendars cleared for court dates as a libel law suit is not a laughing matter. Oh? It's did I mention the libel lawsuit will be public record? Once the lawsuits are complete and the truth is told there will be many people who will be far more humiliated than what they think they are doing to Ms. Caron's reputation. Cynthia remember what I told you? Deep breaths, stay strong and listen to your attorneys. They are smart and justice will be done for you. When the libel suit is over you can post it for the world to see along side your writings of those who create malicious havoc as anything in the court system will be public knowledge! All of them will be known to everyone, as they should be! Good luck dear and remember it is the families that counts and needs you and these trolls are nothing more than lost souls with no lives and multiple personality disorders. But you know that as you hold the proof from all the writings everyone gave you including our good friend among them at WS! Be ready trolls...your cave is about to cave in on you...as deserved.

I had worked along side Cyndi Caron and her staff since the inception of LostNMissing, Inc. The negative remarks posted, mostly from March 2, 2013 through March 5, 2013, are attempts to discredit this organization by using verbal assaults on the character and quality of this organization.

Please note, that real reviews are written by people who have lost loved ones, and these missing people are named for review or follow-up for fact-checking. The negative remarks such as "I wouldn't let her search for my cell phone" or "nut job" are indicative of spiteful trolls.

Use your good judgement when searching for and asking for help from any non-profit organization.

First, before I write my review, I'd like to point out that I noticed all of the bad reviews were written on the same day.... by people who signed up for an account specifically to attack this organization. Sounds fishy to me.

My Mom was missing for 6 years and in those 6 years I have had the pleasure and displeasure of working with many different organizations. Even after her remains were found strewn across the hot desert hills in Death Valley, I continue to help families of the missing as a friend and supporter.

I have not personally gained from Cynthia's service but I know plenty of people who have. I have connected with Cynthia via helping other families and she is one of the first people I would recommend to people for creating beautiful posters and getting information out about missing loved ones.

She is so devoted that when I first met her, she had just had surgery and was supposed to be on bed rest but was online helping me through something. She even uses her pinterest account to share missing loved one's information as well as handling a blog. Brilliant!

I would like to point out from personal experience that you don't HIRE a missing persons organization. If you do... then THEY are wrong. They offer services and you should ask for their help, but don't feel obligated to pour your heart and soul and wallet into any of these organizations. They are providing a service that donors pay for. You can use as many or none at all if you wish. Say thank you, but that is all you really owe any of these orgs. Everything they are doing for your missing loved one.... you can do yourself. They don't have magic powers or insane amount of connections. They are people just like you and me. Remember that.

As far as making a facebook page in honor of a missing person.... if you are not requested by the person's family... Don't Do it! Maybe make one that says "Friends of.......". If there is one put up by the family and moderated by an organization, they will try to get you to shut yours down. Not because of territorial-ism, but because if a tip goes to a random facebook page and not to the family... it can get lost in cyberspace and that is so unfair. Contact the family or the org working with the family and run it by them first. I would have been mortified if someone had a facebook page for my mom and I didn't know who it was. I would think it was someone who had to do with her disappearance trying to take information away.

I hope this perspective is more helpful than harmful.

Thank you for your very kind words. Yes, it is very troublesome when those who do not have the skills and experience inject themselves into the vulnerable lives of family who are terrified and only ask for help...and have complete strangers with no skills contact them online and then cause major disruptions and wreak havoc. Very sad for anyone to do to a grieving family.

This is the most caring and helpful organization I have even encountered. It is quite apparent a very disturbed person has begun a smear campaign against this organization as all negative reviews are posts from March 4. Those truly interested in a great organization can better rely on the opinions of any of the families that Lostnmissing has worked with through the years to find a true review. I have worked with this organization and found Ms Caron to be one of the most caring individuals I have ever met, quickly mobilizing to assist families of the missing. For a true testament of this organization's work, seek the opinions of the many families it has helped. All involved are unpaid volunteers with hearts of gold, well respected by all, including the Law Enforcement community.

This "organization" is an absolute disgrace. Ms. Caron is an aggressive and delusional person. Her treatment of a missing person's family (not the family member she is representing) is insulting and hurtful. What is already the worst time in someone's life is made even worse by Ms.Caron's denigration of the victim.
Case in point - the attack on the father of Samantha Koenig. Unbeknownst to Ms. Caron (though according to her she always knows everything) Israel Keyes had asked for a ransom. Sam's father used money from donations to pay this. This was not info that the public was privy to. Ms. Caron took upon herself to post on social media that sam's father had taken donations and used them inappropriately. Any comments made by family member trying to defende Sam's father were promptly remove and the relatives banned from her page. So what was already traumatising for her father was made even worse by being slandered by Ms. Caron.
2nd case - Jennifer Ramsaran - Ms. Caron was hired by Mr. Ramsaran. Shortly there after, posts and press releases starting coming thick and fast from Ms. Caron insulting the victim.
It was said over and over that Jennifer had mental problems, comments about her weight, her personality, even saying the affair that Mr.Ramsaran had with Jennifer's BF was because Jennifer "changed and pulled away"
Ms. Caron's defence of Mr. Ramsaran resulted in her being removed from crime sites as she could not remain respectful to other members or refrain from insulting Jennifer.
Ms. Caron has been insistent that Jennifer simply ran away and needed time away.
If a family member posted on her facebook page, that Jennifer did not run away and never would, Ms. Caron argues with the family member then simply removes them from her page.
Sadly, Jennifer was found deceased. Was there any regret from Ms. Caron for incorrectly saying Jennifer just ran away, had mental problems etc?
No, of course not. Ms. Caron then posted on her fb that Jennifer could have been alive for the past 11 weeks and had only been dead 24 hours!
Inferring that either Jennifer had run off and had been having a grand old time in the last 11 weeks, then was set upon by some random stranger - or that she was abducted and has been held this whole time then killed.
How great that must make her parents feel to hear that? Are they not going through a hard enough time?
Her "experience" amounts to nothing more than a good use of photo shop to make missing posters.
This "organization" is an embarrassment to all missing persons organizations.
They have in fact even just hired a "psychic" to be their "event planner"??
Perhaps under different leadership this may be a helpful organization, but as Ms. Caron is "president and founder" that is not likely to happen.

I always and only presented myself professionally and in the best interest of finding Jennifer and in no way did any of the unprofessional and negative things you've posted occur. At the same time, we never worked or had any involvement in the Samantha case nor even know her family or father Israel Keyes. Rumors running rampant and people posting against rumors and trying to make it sound "factual" is morally wrong...and at the same time damaging to one's reputation. Again, posting false information and backing that up with claims that I said or was involved in what you've written above is in fact libel....and again, morally wrong.

Ridculous and embarassing to the MIssing Person/SAR community. President tapes conversations, is arrogant and craves attention. Is disrespectful of other organizations, and wastes donor money on useless props. Chases after loved ones of missing persons on facebook.

My brother Timur Mardeyev went missing on November, 29 of 2011 in Oklahoma. It's been 15 months since I've seen him last time. It's been a very hard time for my family because we are very close to him. While I am his sister I made a promise to my mom before her passing that I would care for my little brother. The first few months after Timur went missing we didn't know what to do. Our local police department didn't give us much help, actually didn't want take this case to serious for a while since my brother is an adult male of 27 years of age. We were trying to search for any help through the Internet and trying to find people in the same situation. I found Cynthia Caron and LostNMissing, Inc. through the search on Facebook and made a call. Since she and her team took on my brother's case we have finally had the searches and help we've needed! Cynthia and her staff are amazing! I couldn't make it so far without her! From just a person who helps families of missing she is now one of my best friends! She always supports us, she always has the right words to say, she always has sound advice and guidance. Every day, twice or more, she reposts every missing person case on their facebook page, she reaches the media to get the information in to the public, she makes the posts and events for missing persons and their families. What amazes me is that LostNMissing, Inc. never charges for any thing nor for any help they give. They are working just to help families without asking anything back. I feel like God send her to us to help and support us through this hard time. She is very professional and intelligent person. Without her help and support we would be lost.
My family and I would highly recommend Cynthia Caron and her team at LostNMissing, Inc. to anyone going through this stressful situation.
God Bless Cynthia and her staff!
Gulnara Brown and family.

Cynthia Caron was an Angel when my family needed one the most. My son went missing in May 2012. I contacted LostnMissing for help. This organization came highly recommended. My first conversation with Cynthia lasted almost an hour. It came just minutes after I contacted her. My family can't say enough about our positive experience with this organization. We, and I say WE, because every communication include my son's and daughter's in law. She guided us. Created my son's website. Printed hundreds of missing flyers. Found us lodging when we traveled to search. My son was found. I know in my heart that without Cynthia and her wonderful organization, the outcome would have been very different. I don' know who these people are who are trying to hurt her but they are wrong and should use their time more productively.

I don't know where to begin to describe Cynthia Caron LostNMissing Inc. My son was missing for several weeks. My family tried desperately and did all we could think of to try to find him. It was the most difficut time of our lives. A wonderful mother whose son had also gone missing contacted me on facebook and suggested that we Contact LostNMissing. I did that immediately and the next thing I knew I was on the phone with Cynthia. We spoke for over an hour. She asked me several questions and told me what they would do for us and helped me more than I can describe to you. She is kind, compassionate, honest, sincere and the most incredible woman I have ever met. Yes, I met her. She came to RI specifically to meet me. My family will never forget her and she will always be our friend and we will always support LostNMissing. We were so blessed that our son was found safe but others have not been so lucky. And others still are waiting for their loved ones to be found. This is one of the best organizations any one could ever support. My family was blessed to have Cynthia and LostNMissing with us throughout this difficult journey. We love you Cynthia

Cynthia Caron is the most compassionate and dedicated person I have ever met.

In a time when you feel lost and alone and like no one truly cares, Cynthia and the staff of LostNMissing step in and show you that you are never alone. They follow the laws, make sure they have information correct and always take into account the best interests of the family of the missing.

When I decided that I wanted to volunteer my time to an organization I searched for a Non-Profit whose goals and message was inline with my own values and beliefs and a cause I felt I could benefit. From the moment Cynthia and I first spoke she became someone I knew would be a lifelong friend, she has an ease and grace about her that is welcoming and kind. She spends hours working even when she is tired, she sacrifices everything even if it means using her Anniversary gift from her husband to be at a vigil across the country instead of a weekend celebrating and having fun. Cynthia is not wired to say NO, she has a need in her to help, she feels connected and almost responsible to get every single story to as many people as possible. She has insprired me to continue my education, been available when I needed advice and has never forgotten to show me how much she appreciates me, people like Cynthia make this world a better place for all of us. The more I became involved with LostNMissing and the more connected I became to the cases I coordinated events for the more certain I became that I had found the cause I was meant to support. Our work is absolutely neccessary and rewarding even though I grieve right along with the family whose loved one we are desperately working to bring home. Cynthia Caron along with the entire staff of LostNMissing are dedicated, driven and compassionate people that have a need to help others anyway possible. We work hard, we give out of our own pockets and every single one of us feels that no one ever, anywhere should be a missing person in a file.

Cynthia has been instrumental in our cause to Bring Ayla Home. From organizing vigil events to providing food, pamphlets, and billboards to help raise awareness that Ayla is missing. She also helped with media and internet relations. Initially, we had no idea such an organization existed for missing persons and at no point did she force her organization on us. The more we needed Cynthia, the more she provided and LostNMissing has turned out to be Ayla's guardian angel.

At the onset, she displayed professionalism, expertise, and a sound judgement to guide the Reynolds family through the tragic loss of thier little angel. Even after Law Enforcement has stated that Ayla is highly unlikely to be found alive, LostNMissing has strived to keep up the awareness for the Reynolds and Ayla's fight to have justice and Ayla Bell found.

There are no words that could adequately express the gratitude that the Goings family has for the work of LostNMissing. When their 16 year old daughter went missing, the family was met with a lackadaisical and indifferent attitude from law enforcement and little assistance from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Law enforcement immediately assumed a posture of relegated their daughter to the status and label of "runaway" and did little to help locate her. Further, they seemed disinterested in any leads, or potential information that would help bring their daughter back home. When the family spokesperson contacted PEAS and shared the compelling circumstances of their daughter's disappearance and apparent abduction, members of the PEAS and LostNMissing mobilized a grass-roots effort consisting of a team of volunteers and experts within their staff to bring their daughter home safely. LostNMissing created posters for both print and electronic distribution, created a social media page and provided expert guidance on how to coordinate the search as well as methods for the parents and family to cope with the devastation of having a missing child. LostNMissing attended meetings, sent emails to law enforcement, spent countless hours in discussion over the phone with the family and volunteers. They expedited the recording of the case in national databases and tirelessly worked to find the missing teen. I know without a doubt that were it not for the dedication and compassion of LostNMissing, the Goings may not have located their daughter safely.

The police have no lead whatsoever on this case. It is as if it never happened. Angel is my only son and if there is anything that I know about him best that is that he will never leave without letting his dad, sister or my self know of is whereabouts. It has being extremely difficult for me, his dad, sister as well as the rest of the family and friends. We all agree that Angel is a bright young man who is respectful towards others and a very funny kid. I am thankful to the All Mighty God for helping me raise my son to be a kid of good. But must important I thank God for all the strength that he has given me and continues to give me in order to continue with the faith that I some day soon or latter will find my son. I also thank Jehovah for putting this wonderful organization in my path. LostNMissing have being my guardian Angel's since the day they contacted me. The are the ones who helped make possible awareness of my son's disappearing. They came to my rescue just when I felt alone, when I felt I had nobody I can come to for help.

My brother left his home on foot on Oct 23rd. It was possible he had went hunting close to the family farm. My brother was reported to Maryland officials as Missing on Oct 25 2012 no one had seen him since the 23rd. Units began searching for him on Thurs. Oct 25. Their official search was over by evening Oct 27. Monday the 29th I knew our family needed help. "Sandy" was on her way in and we were looking for a needle in a haystack. (Acres of wooded area). I traveled back to my home in SC. I was told about LostNMissing by a co-worker. I sent LNM an email that morning and within a short period of time , my brother was on their website. At the end, Nov 1 my brother's body was found by a hunter in the woods. LostNMissing was notified by email and Cynthia Caron created a beautiful picture with such compassion and serenity that his "earthly body had been found". Our family will never forget the immediate action , sincereity, and compassion we received from Cynthia Caron. God bless you and the work you do.

I am forever grateful for your service you selflessly offered our family. When I initially contacted Lostnmissing via email I wasn't sure how soon I would hear back. I was contacted within 20 minutes! To be honest, it was a hard phone call because I suddenly became aware of reality and weight of our situation....our daughter was missing. Even though you were literally right in the middle of the biggest storm ever seen in the U.S. and about to lose power, our emergency became your new priority. Within an hour of our initial email Lostnmissing had a facebook post with pictures of our daughter. Your action, care, and daily follow-up phone calls, brought hope and strength to the storm we were experiencing. My emotional state and working with authorities made it difficult to focus at times. I had attempted to put together a poster myself but I couldn't pull it together. Lostnmissing put the poster together with exact wording expressing our heart for our missing daughter. It brought awareness to our local community and through Facebook, "united" the states in search of our daughter. Thanks to the collaborated efforts of the Meridian and Boise Police, Lostnmissing, and every person who posted and re-posted and reported sightings of her, she was found. Lostnmissing was a key instrument used in locating our girl. Forever Grateful, The Family of "Brooke N."

This is a wonderful charity/organization that informs the public of missing persons. They assist families of missing loved ones. The public needs to become aware of how many people go missing every day and they do a fantastic job of getting the word out there. So often only the high profile cases that the media find appealing are featured and heard about by the general public. This is a travesty of justice for not only the missing but the families that anxiously await their return or for some type of closure. Please donate or volunteer your time to this fantastic organization. Lets bring the missing home.

I was so lost and confused. I had went to missing petrson sites added my sweet daughter to there data base. A couple days later I had recieved a call from cynthia from LostNMissing this orginization had done wonders for me. LostNMissing had set up a candle vigel a few weeks later in hopes that someone would know something and come forward. We had a spagatti dinner/ silent auction to raise a reward they did fliers we went to new york and handed out fliers. There was so many times I just wanted to give upi and Cynthia said do not give up hope. Megan will be found trust me. for a non profit orginzation LostNMissing does not think of how much they pay to help familes with missing loved ones. i do not know what I would have done with out them. then the dreaded day came on december 13, 2010 when my daughter was located as an angel. She was a victum of the long island serial killer I had contacted Cynthia they day I found out she knew before I could say it becaause i was hesterical she told me to calm down.

Tomorrow it will be a month since our loved ones were located and returned to us safely. When a loved one goes missing, the emotions and confusion that immediately follow the disappearance are disorienting. Very few people have any experience in how to find a missing person and often, law enforcement is limited in what actions they can take. In our situation, the police were initially very helpful but seemed to lose interest as time passed. However, the staff at LostnMissing never lost interest, never stopped helping us, and never lost hope. I cannot begin to express the gratitude our family feels towards these wonderful people who are all volunteers. The team at LostnMissing was the first group to reach out and help us. They provided poster design and advice throughout the worst 7 weeks of our lives. They never gave up and that was a huge encouragement to us to keep fighting and do whatever it took to find our loved ones. The only thing the family of a missing person has to get through the day is hope...without that, they can't go on. LostnMissing provided us with that hope...we will never look at a Missing Poster the same way again and we will be avid supporters of this volunteer organization for years to come. Thank you LostnMissing!!!

Every day this group advises me of lost and missing persons who I should keep an eye out for. While many are from areas other than where I live, I generally pass them on because I know many people in other areas and you never know when or where someone might be found thanks to advisories such as these. Thank you for this site and this group. I think the world can save lives through groups like this.

I never realized how many people were missing, in this country. It was shocking to me and I am proud to be a member of the public that shares this organizations posts on Facebook, hoping that someone will know something and speak up. You often hear about missing women and children, but the number of missing men is staggering. This organization helps families in need and brings awareness to the increasing problem of missing people in this world. With the rise in human trafficking this organization is more important than ever.

Cynthia has been instrumental in our cause to Bring Ayla Home. From organizing vigil events to providing food, pamphlets, and billboards to help raise awareness that Ayla is missing. She also helped with media and internet relations. Initially, we had no idea such an organization existed for missing persons and at no point did she force her organization on us. The more we needed Cynthia, the more she provided and LostNMissing has turned out to be Ayla's guardian angel. I can only hope that she, along with our family will be rewarded with Ayla's return.

My beloved husband was a medical emergency who went missing in March of 2011 at only 60 years of age. He was found dead a week later. We were devastated. From the day he went missing and Cynthia's organization became involved to try to find my husband, we felt as though we were held up by angels. Lost N Missing mourned with us when he was found dead a week later and Cynthia has never lost touch with me. Our family is indebted to Cynthia and the team at Lost N Missing for all they did for us in this great time of need. Even now - 14 mos. later, we are still devastated but we know that we are still held up by angels .... Cynthia and the team from Lost N Missing.

I am a mother of a child that was missing. My daughter went missing on 12/22/2011 @ 12:00 p.m. after school let out for the Holiday break. I waited to call the police because I told her she could go over her friends house to get her jacket she left, but she went over another friend house and she left their house @ around 8 p.m. without calling us letting us know she was on her way home. By that time I had said, "If she didn't walk thru the door at 9 p.m. I was calling the police." 9 p.m. came around and she wasn't home I called the police and they didn't get to my house till after 1 a.m. By that time and the response I got from The police I posted a message about my daughter missing on my FB page for Jhessye Shockley. I got a response fro Mark and Shanna Palmer, who gave me all the information for Lost and missing, Missing and Exploited Children, Peasintheirpods Children and numerous other organizations. By the next day, my daughters information was made into a FB page and made it public, I also found out later Friday evening from Mark Palmer that my daughter had made local news coverage and local print. I even got a call from a local news paper reporter and her school also was alerted and contacted all the kids I told them was her friends and they contacted them to see if they had seen my daughter, even a Rilya Alert was put out. All these organizations as a whole helped in the return of my daughter, who was kidnapped and assaulted and is now being investigated. This was a trying time because of the holiday season and me never being involved with someone who has had this happen personally so I had a hard time thinking straight. I am seeking counseling for both of us and send a special thanks to all who took time out to make my child a priority and not blow her off as she was a teen who just left to have fun, because in the end the SA kit and bruises on her body showed other wise. She still tells me more everyday in bits and pieces because she was hit on the head. She is trying to move on like a normal child, but I have noticed when she goes off into her brothers room alone. I heard sobbing and noticed the door was locked so I left her alone. She seems to act normal to me but the closer it gets to her going back to school, the more she seems to act like she is going into a shell. I want to re thank all the organizations that helped and are going to help in the future.

When my brother went missing this past September, I had no idea where to turn. He was located across the country, which made it difficult to get the ball rolling on search efforts and getting the word out. Cynthia and her crew at lostnmissing.org were instrumental in aiding the search. Not only did they set up a facebook website, they redesigned the missing poster with more accurate pictures and information, and even updated it when I found other useful pictures. Cynthia also guided me to other online organizations that could help in finding my brother. Without Cynthia, I would have been totally lost. She checked in with me to make sure I was doing okay, asked about my family, and has been with me every step of the way. I feel like she is part of our family, and that she and her volunteers genuinely care about our missing loved ones and families. That is important to me, and I know it is important to other families as well. Cynthia is just absolutely wonderful, and i do not know what I what have done without her.

Cynthia from Lost -n- Missing is a wonderful women. My sister went missing 4 years ago on July 9, 2007. Maureen was one of the girls found on Gilgo beach Long Island Ny. She is a victims of the Long Island Serial Killer. I met Cynthia through one of the other victim found on Long Island with my sister, mother Lorraine.Cynthia is wonderful. She is always there for me to talk to or to turn to for anything regarding my sister and any missing person case. She always is on top of any missing persons in the nation. She has taught me a lot about life and getting through struggles. Whenever I need to reach out to I know I can always turn to Cynthia. I had recently came in contact with a sister who had a brother missing and Cynthia the next day made a flyer for her. I got the missing brother and Cynthia together. Because I know if anyone can help her find her brother it would be Cynthia from Lost-n- Missing. I now look at Cynthia as a life time friend and support. Cynthia ia always open to help anyone missing persons or even just someone to talk to. She give great advise.

My niece was missing and we we were lost. A page was put on face book saying that she was missing and the most wonderful person found us - Cynthia guided us through this nightmare and helped us focus on what needed to get done. I don't think there are enough ways to say thank you that could possibly show how truly thankful I am, we are to this organization.
We (my sister and myself) called on Cynthia many times with questions, and she was always there (even in the middle of a power outage :) And anytime my sister called me to ask for advice or a question about her daughters situation 9 times out of 10 my reply was why don't you give Cynthia a call. So nice to know someone is there, on your side in a time like this when even the police don't seem to be on your side.

Marissa is home now, and I will never forget this organization and the good they do and I will always be willing to support them in any way I can - and I am not saying this just because my family is home and safe I would have said right from the start, we knew this was important to Cynthia to help us find her

When our 22 year old son went missing in a large city we were so worried and scared and we truly did not even know where to begin the process of trying to locate him.
We did not understand what the rules of the game we were entering. Cynthia and her group LostNMissing were amazing. They supported my family and myself with kindness, knowledge and empowered us on our journey of locating our son.
They made posters immediately and distributed them for us. They helped us learn about all the places we needed to get information to: Law Enforcement, Media, Social Networks. They even made a Facebook page for him and helped us learn that process.
I cannot have imagined how much more frustrated I would have been without their help.
LostNMissing helped us get our information on NAMUS - Immediately!

When no one understood my feelings - LostNMissing did.
When no one helped me and I felt discouraged - LostNMissing supported me.
When I felt like I was getting no where - LostNMissing provied new ways of hope.
When posters needed to get to New York Libraries, Hostels, Cafes, Book Stores, YMCA's, Train stations, Bus Stations - They were distributed by help of LostNMissing.
When we weren't getting any more press coverage - LostNMissing wrote a Blog about my son.
When we offered an Award - LostNMissing made a new Poster.
When we thought there was no hope - they gave us HOPE.
When we didnt know what to say when we found our son or how to act or what to do next - LostNMissing helped provide us guidance and further support.
This organization is Amazing and I can honestly say that I support them 100% and will now do volunteer work to help them.
Thank you SO VERY MUCH LostNMissing! For Every Little & BIG Thing!

At the end of November 2010, I joined a page on Facebook in order to help spread the word about my friends missing brother George. Instantly I became aware of the selfless and caring role LostNMissing has played in so many lives....The awareness that Cynthia Caron brought to George's case was remarkable. She arranged television interviews with the family and search parties on cable networks....to get the word out about George and where he was last seen. The LostNMissing team had constant communication with the family and FB page in organizing all information coming through the page- and keeping the public aware of any information that could be shared to help in the search. The support that they gave the friends and family of George was so amazing. It seemed as if George was the only one missing- I had no idea until after George was found, how many other cases Cynthia and her team worked on simultaneously and continue to help.... They were the light in the darkest hours, shedding light on individuals who are missing-young and old-and bringing awareness to each case they work on as if these missing loved ones are their own family. Truly Amazing and Wonderful !!!!!!

Words could never express my gratitutude towards LostNMissing. During my families darkest moment they were our pillar of strength.



This past Novemeber my little brother Georgie went missing in Aspen. By some small miracle, I was forwarded information to LostNMissing. WIthin minutes I was contacted by Cynthia. Talking to her was like talking to a close friend. I knew at that moment she was going to take care of everything. Cynthia and Angela quickly became advocates for our family. Offering thier advice, support and more than once a sympathetic ear. The spirit and energy of LostNMissing astounded us. It was like my brother was their brother. It moved my family to the core to have them working with us.



I can honestly say that Cynthia and Angela were the only thing that kept us grounded and going during that time. During the three weeks my brother was missing, it would have been impossible to count the amount of times we thanked God for them.



They will forever hold a piece of my heart and I know that Georgie is watching over them the way they watched over us.

Having a missing one is a rare and scary thing. When the horror of a missing loved one strikes the family, you are desperate, horrified but most of all - you are so lost. What do you do? Where do you go? What do you need to file, where? Who do you call besides LE? What if they do not take you seriously? Mistakes and delays which are made can cost you a precious time, which are never on yous side when someone is missing. That is such an unknown and dark territory for everybody.

That is where LostNMissing.org comes. LostNMissing is such a wonderful organization, who has endless sources of knowledge on how to deal in such horrible situation. They will tell you exactly what needs to be done to start the process, as well, as help you to keep it going. When my adult son went missing, we found that without LostNMissing we were like blind cats, not knowing what to do, whom to trust and where to ask for help. We are so grateful to LostNMissing and Cynthia Carol in partially for everything they have done for us. Organizing flier distribution events, looking for other ways to make the case as visible as possible - they do it all. Cynthia worked day and night to make sure our son's case was covered locally and nationally, pushing for us to be on CNN live, writing endless articles, announcing the reward. She went beyond possible and had a banner installed with our missing son's pictures very close to the place where he went missing from. LostNMissing is a truly admirable organization where everything they do - becomes personal to them.

I also wanted to mention, that if God forbid, in spite the efforts, the outcome is not a favorable, LostNmissing work does not stop here. Thanks to LostNMissing.org and Cynthia Caron personally, our son's life was celebrated in the best possible way a mother could imagine.

thank you, LostNMissing!

She not only sent me a beautiful banner of my son, but helped with flyers, articals on the web, and inserts for our ballon launch. She did so much more than that for me she cared and talked to me. She was the friend I needed in a desperate time of need. My son is home and safe, but if you have a missing person and need help Lost and Missing is the first place I would start.

My first meetings with Cynthia Caron, Founder of LostNMissing, was on discussion boards. From there we each went different, yet similar paths, never losing sight of the need for more assistance with missing persons cases. LostNMissing is one of the most comprehensive organizations. They have the ability to support the family members every step of the way through unspeakable journeys to find their loved ones. LostNMissing steps up to the plate, has many great connections, and, best of all keeps the needs of the families in the forefront of everything they do.

When my daughter Jessie Foster went missing and I did not know what to do or where to turn, I 'met' Cyndi and she has been there for me, supporting me, making banners for Jessie on her birthdays, anniversary dates of her disappearance and does this for hundreds . . . thousands of others with a missing loved one. And if their loved one is found deceased, LostNMissing does the most beautiful memorial banners. I am very honoured to have become connected with LostNMissing, Inc. Jessie's mom, Glendene.

What a beautiful testimony, Glendene. And if I had it I would spend a million bucks of my own money if I knew that is what it would take to bring your beautiful Jesse home. My hugs, hopes and always prayers.
