Daughter’s Heartfelt Statement

“Honestly I can’t respond to that because I do not even know. My first response would be of course, definitely, but then I think about all the pain … Yet even then, my mommy is only human, just as most of us are,” she wrote.

“As far as my viewpoints and feelings on my mom … I am ecstatic, I am p– ed, I am sad, I am all over the map!” the unidentified daughter stated in the statement posted on a Facebook account committed to locating her absent mother.

Multi-Agency Search Efforts

Smith’s “troubling” loss triggered multiple companies throughout North Carolina and Virginia, consisting of the FBI, to search for her for “many” hours and pursue several investigative leads at the time, police officers said.

“When my mommy was a part of my day-to-day live, she showed me a love and bond that will never ever be neglected. There were mother-daughter arguments naturally, but right now all I can remember are the smiles we shared, the moments with each other that mored than happy, and the love I really felt!”
