Prayer is what a family hopes will bring their missing daughter home. It's been one year since Debora Gail Deloach Moody went missing, last seen by a friend at her Ludowici home.
"They found that she was not there and that her vehicle was there, and her coat and her glasses and everything else was there so they said that she just disappeared," says Gail’s mom, Melanie Clark.
Family and friends held a candlelight vigil Thursday night at Trinity Baptist Church. Those there believe in the power of prayer and they hope it'll bring them at least some answers into what happened to Gail.
"Lord, the family feels like somebody around here may know something. And god I pray you'll torch their heart. Lord, touch their heart and let the family know so they can have some closure, have some peace in their heart," says Pastor Tim Parrish of Trinity Baptist Church.
Gail's son is in college in Florida and couldn't be here. But his presence was felt through poems he wrote about his mom. "The desolate rooms seem so empty since you went away. Til your radiance, beauty and heartfelt smile would fill all of our hearts with love again, we love you mom."
Investigators say they have not given up on this case. "We continue to interview people and try to collect information," says Special Agent Mike McDaniel with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.
Gail's father hopes someone will pass along information to authorities soon. "If anybody finds anything out there that could be any kind of credible evidence or lead or whatever, we ask you to step forward," says Bill Carter.
With each holiday that passes, Gail's mother says it doesn't get any easier. "Birthdays, Thanksgiving, Halloween. Halloween was the last time we saw her. It hurts the same, whether it was yesterday or down the road, it's still the same," says Melanie.
