The mother of a Victoria child who disappeared without a trace 32 years ago Friday says she believes her son is still alive.
Michael Dunahee disappeared around 12:30 p.m. on March 24, 1991. The four-year-old boy was last seen on the playground at Blanshard School, while his family and many others were watching a touch football game in the park.
His disappearance prompted a massive and immediate search involving hundreds of volunteers and police from multiple agencies, but the boy was never found.
Crystal Dunahee said Friday she believes her son is alive and "it's just a matter of time" before the world finds out what happened to him.
"One day we're going to have the answer we're all waiting for" she told Victoria radio station CFAX 1070 on Friday, the 32nd anniversary of her son's disappearance.
"I do have a DNA account set up… if Michael decides to check out his family history," she added.
The annual Michael Dunahee Keep the Hope Alive five-kilometre walk and run will take place Sunday.
