‘It Stays With You, 24/7,’ Says Dad Of Missing Woman About The Grief Of Not Knowing What Happened To His Daughter

Andrea Knabel volunteered her time searching for missing persons until she, too, disappeared in August 2019. The 39-year-old mother of two has not been seen by her family and friends for over two years. Andrea’s father, Mike, and her sister, Erin, say they will never stop searching for Andrea even though it has taken a toll on their family. “It stays with you, 24/7,” says Andrea’s father, Mike, describing his feeling of being frozen in “permanent grief” from not knowing what happened to his daughter. Erin, who reported her sister missing, and who was among the last to see Andrea before her disappearance, says, “I think maybe someone might have taken advantage of her that night.” And later, why does Erin say she carries “a lot of guilt” over her sister’s disappearance?
