It has now been five years since a Langley woman was last seen and her family is hoping a memorial walk will generate more tips and awareness.
Kristina Ward was reported missing in late September 2017.
Langley RCMP released a video at the time that showed Ward walking with a man with a bike.
In the video, Ward can be seen crossing the street at 104 Avenue and 142 Street in Surrey between 7:50 p.m. and 8:45 p.m. on Sept. 27.
Every year, members of Ward’s family gathered at the site where she was last seen.
“Every birthday, Christmas, the unknown. You keep on searching, where are you Kristina you don’t know where to look exactly for her,” mother Lee Ann Ward said Tuesday.
“It’s just the unknown, no closure.”
RCMP say their serious crime unit has conduct of the investigation.
Ward, who would now be 25 years old, is described as Indigenous, five feet five inches, 130 pounds, and with curly brown hair and brown eyes.
Lee-Ann Ward says her daughter’s name is now in the database of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women.
“Come home, Kristina, come home. We miss you and love you,” she said.
