It’s been four years since an Edmonton woman vanished without a trace, and despite the odds, Nadia Atwi’s mother is still hopeful she’ll come home.
Salwa Atwi said she still clearly remembers the day her daughter was reported missing.
“She didn’t message me like usual. So I phoned and nobody answered,” Salwa said. “So I went to her house and I knocked on the door. Her husband answered. He said she left.”
Nadia was a kindergarten teacher at a private school in south Edmonton. But on Dec. 8, 2017, she didn’t show up for work.
Nadia’s vehicle was found in Rundle Park. Family, friends and volunteers helped search the area.
“So many people went there and we looked, and we were told the police searched the area, the skies, the ground,” Salwa recalled.
