Family’s plea: ‘Caitlin come home’

The Anderson family: dad and mom, Carl and Tonita, and four of their children, Maxwell, Jordan, Jacob and Erica.

The Andersons cling to hope — hope that every time the phone rings it may be their missing daughter, Caitlin, on the line.

Caitlin, a 15-year-old London High School freshman, has been missing since early Monday morning.

The Andersons don’t have any idea of where she may be, whom she may be with.

Her dad, Carl, said the circumstances of her disappearance don’t immediately matter. “Just come home, Caitlin,” he said.

“We’re all stressed,” Carl said about his family’s waiting. “We’re doing the best we can.

“We’ve been on pins and needles. Me and my wife (Tonita) didn’t sleep at all the first few nights. We’ve been able to sleep a few hours the last few nights just from exhaustion.”

London Police are investigating the disappearance and “are tracking every lead we can,” LPD chief Dave Wiseman said..

“We’re doing everything we can,” he said. “We’ve gotten phone calls, emails and this has really taken off on the social media.”

Meanwhile, the Andersons, Carl and Tonita and their children, Erica, Jacob, Jordan and Maxwell, sit and wait to hear from the oldest child.

“Before she left, she gave me and my wife a kiss good night and went to bed,” Carl said. “We just want her home. That’s all we want.”

    Caitlin, I’m happy you’re home. I miss you and I wanna be there with you. Sorry I moved. I love you Caitlin forever.

    I just heard. I’m distraught. I have two kids of my own and when I hear of missing children I’m devastated to say the least. I am going to let EVERYONE I know know about this and make sure THEY spread the word. She’ll come home. I’m sure of it. All I can say is feed on the positive energy that everyone is sending and good will come. You and your family are in the hearts of so many people. You are strong and we all will be sending massively positive vibrations and energy your way.

    Mr. and Mrs. Anderson…I forgot to add that I hope you feel the love from so many people throughout this country ( and beyond ) that is very concerned about Caitlin. Lovely people everywhere….I hope that this gives you a little “sense” that you are not alone in your pain and concern.

    There is nothing worse than not knowing where your child is !!! I pray that she will come home “safe and sound”…..Hang in there Mr and Mrs Anderson I’m sure that once she knows how many people care and the distress that she is causing her entire family she will find her way home. Bless you all.

  7. My heart aches for this family. I hope Caitlin comes home safe.
