Show Notes

A beautiful conversation with a very special mom, Janice Smolinski. The entire family has been searching non stop for precious Billy.
William Paul Smolinski Jr. also known as Billy was last seen by a neighbour on August 24, 2004 at his Waterbury Connecticut home. 
Today marks 18 years since Billy was last seen, he was only 31 years old when he disappeared. 
What happened to Billy and where is he today?
I had the pleasure of meeting Janice and Bill (Billy's parents) in 2010 at the Cue Center for Missing Persons Conference, and Gil Alba and Donna Green also attended. 
In this episode we share an intimate conversation as Billy's mom shares various stories about her precious missing son, Billy. There is something special that happens when the world gets to hear such heartfelt stories about a missing loved one, I know it made my heart melt to learn more about Billy's kind heart and I feel it will touch yours as well!
Billy was such a kind and passionate person who cared about people including the homeless people who suffer in life. 
You will also hear about the "Christmas tree" story.   

It is time to bring Billy home.
