"The Doe Network" : International Center for Unidentified & Missing Persons
Appreciation

The Doe Network is a volunteer-operated organization.

We have been fortunate enough to work with extremely talented, dedicated and wonderful people involved in the cold cases community, both civilian and professional.

Doe Network began as a website in 1999, became a volunter org in 2001 and evolved into an official 501c on July 29, 2011.

While a simple "Thank You" page doesn't really suffice for some of the help we have received, it is the best way we can express our gratitude.

    In Remembrance

    Liz Chipman

    04/11/1981 ~ 02/27/2005

    Liz Chipman will be remembered by many as being a warm & loving person who fought for what she believed in. She overcame her medical problems to put one hundred percent into everything she did. Many lives were affected by her & she will be missed dearly.

    ~Voices of the Lost~
    My name is missing, though I have a face.
    My name is vanished, and I need a voice.
    My name is lost; I yearn to be found.

    I am but a number.
    Though people have seen me,
    Though people have heard me,
    Though people have mocked me,

    I am not acknowledged.
    I am cold, depressed and lonely, though I am surrounded by people.
    My swollen eyes have looked on, straining to see the sun rise on yet another day.
    My parched, scarred skin speaks volumes of the actions of the soulless.

    People look onward.
    Around me
    Behind me
    Above me.

    Struggling to not recognize me.
    I have prayed.
    I have begged.
    I have pleaded.

    To be seen and heard.
    As a human.
    As a life.
    As a person.

    Is it for nothing?
    You make the decision.
    You disregarded us while we were here.
    Will you let it happen yet again?
    Think about it.

    --Written by Liz Chipman in memory of the missing women in Vancouver.
