PLEASE HELP US FIND PAYTON YOUNG!

Donation protected
On Sunday, Jan 21st, our dearest Payton Young (age 17), daughter of Brad & Jamie Young, went missing.

She is considered an endangered runaway, who is being actively searched for by Team PAYTON; which includes family, friends, and the Columbus Police Department.  We are so very thankful for all the good work the CPD has done thus far.

We are inviting you to join our team to become a “Guardian Angel” member, and help this beautiful family reunite, heal and become whole again.

Please understand how serious this situation is.  Time is of the essence!


WHAT WE KNOW HAPPENED:
                               
Payton came home from church on that day, then chatted with friends on social media before leaving her house. Her car was found empty and unlocked at Hayden Falls Park near Dublin that night, leaving her cell phone and wallet inside.

Police found a suicide note on her phone, but we ALL firmly believe that she is still with us, and just needs to be found and brought home safely.
           
She has had no contact with Family/Friends, nor any social media activity, to our knowledge.

The great news is we still have HOPE!!!
                               

Heartfelt Letter to Payton from her parents – Brad & Jamie Young: 

   “Dearest Payton,

     We love you so much.  Please come home! We want to hug you so tightly & wrap our arms around you. Our family is NOT complete without YOU! 
     We miss you so very much. We are praying for you every day that you are safe, and that you find a way (any way) to make it back home. 
     We’re not going to stop looking for you.  You have so many people that love you, and are praying for you.  You are now in everyone’s thoughts…..continually.

   Please, please come home!

          We love you! 
          Mom and Dad”

HOW YOUR DONATION WILL BE USED:

    1--Private investigator   -   Leads are few and far between and we would like to hire a PI to do some “family inspired” investigating.

    2--Professional Counseling services etc.  -   When we do find her!
 
    3--Getting the word out MORE   -  Meaning more signs, billboards, flyers etc.

    4--Lost wages  -  Jamie has stopped doing her daycare and Brad has not gone back to work.

    5--Medical / Legal services  -  What may be needed after we bring her home.

NOTE — Any funds that are unused after Payton returns home will be donated to a Charity of the family's choosing.
