View all 30 ReflectionsHi. My name is Meade. I am the youngest son to Howard. I have never had the pleasure of meeting anyone from my dad's side. I have been looking for my siblings since I was 12 years old. I was just a year and a half when our dad was taken from us. I would love to reach out and meet any of my siblings. Thank you to the department for never giving up on his case.
