"PERSISTENCE" IS PAYING OFF!

These guy are really 'Natalee's Angels'. I am amazed how hard they are working to find Natalee so she can be laid to rest in a proper place and for closure for Natalee's parents, family and friends. I have never been so impressed by the incredible humanitarian effort to find Natalee. It is truly AMAZING. Talk about hard workers...the Persistence team works 18 HOURS A DAY...less than 6 hours sleep, every single day since December, 2007.

Check out the link below to see how hard they are working and what is involved in the process to locate Natalee.

The dedicated ocean search for Natalee Holloway has been underway since mid-November, 2007. What began in Louisiana during mobilization now culminating in Aruba, the search has utilized some of the best search equipment and personnel in the world. To date, approximately 900 miles of sonar data has been collected covering a geographic area 80% the size of Aruba. The search has required a painstakingly slow approach which in the end leaves no stone unturned.


Although slow, this approach is extremely effective in marine search and recovery. Since the beginning, the search has been privately funded by Louis Schaefer Jr. of Underwater Expeditions who remarkably and gracefully accepted the financial burden when requested by Texas Equusearch and Natalee's parents. John Silvetti of Marine Surveys, Greg Landry of Offshore Innovative Solutions, Erik McGuire of Seatronics, along with Agiosat and Wilkens Weather Service came beside Louis to conduct this humanitarian effort. To put this search effort in financial perspective, an equivalent search conducted for industry would involve costs well
exceeding several million dollars. This project has been conducted for about 35 cents on the dollar, with costs still exceeding a million dollars.


Although we have searched and ruled out an extensive portion of the original planned search area, a substantial portion of the high-probability area yet remains to be explored. Now, following a publicly confirmed admission that Natalee Holloway was disposed at sea, we are confident that completing the focused search area will bring closure. We therefore formally invite and request anyone who this humanitarian effort has touched to get involved and to help support the remaining search efforts.


Donations are being handled by Texas Equusearch, 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization. Please come beside those who have already given so much to help ensure a proper funeral in Alabama for Natalee Holloway. Please make all donations marked as: "Holloway search".
