William’s foster parents also released a statement on Wednesday, saying: “Tomorrow marks five tragic years since William disappeared; five long years of unimaginable heartbreak and fear; five years of unending sadness and tears; five years without answers, of not knowing where William is or what has happened to him.
“And although we’ll mark five dark years of deep sadness and pain, we’ll also mark five years of hope that William will be found. We’ll mark five years of endless love for him from across Australia and around the world.”
They thanked the media for “five years of continuing to remind the world that William is missing,” and police, for “five years of determination and commitment to find William, and five years of support from Crime Stoppers who continue to wait for the call we hope will one day come.”
The family also thanked their charity partner, the Daniel Morcombe Foundation, for joining them “in our promise to never give up on William in the hope that we will find him and bring him home. It is this love and support from so many that keeps hope alive. Our heartfelt thanks to you all.”
The Where’s William campaign, organized by the Insight Communications public relations company on behalf of the foster parents, released a new poster, with a photograph of William, saying: “William, we will never give up.”
