## Resource

Kerry Needham’s father, Eddie, died just days before the 35th anniversary of her son Ben’s disappearance from a Greek island in 1991 — a loss that deepened the family’s agony. Eddie, who’d battled cancer, carried a lifetime of guilt, convinced Ben was abducted despite official claims of an accident. He’d spent decades searching, sleeping on beaches to save money, and even heard Ben’s voice in dreams pleading to be found. Kerry, now determined to honor his relentless quest for truth, vows to keep pushing for answers — his death only intensifying her resolve. The family’s move to Kos for a fresh start turned tragic when Ben vanished during his first visit to his grandfather’s worksite, with witness reports of a suspicious vehicle ignored by authorities. Eddie never accepted the investigation’s closure — and now, Kerry will not stop until justice is served. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
