The family of a man who disappeared almost two years ago is seeking the help of a private investigator to unravel the mystery surrounding his vanishing. They are determined to prevent their son from becoming just another statistic. Chris Harper, aged 37, went missing in November 2024 from Burlington, Vermont, and has not been seen since. Despite the lack of leads, his family remains hopeful of finding him alive while also bracing for the worst-case scenario.
In an effort to locate Chris, his mother, Sandy Harper, aged 66, has offered a $5,000 reward for any information leading to his discovery. They are entrusting a private investigator to delve into the case and provide closure for the family. Sandy expressed the emotional turmoil of having a missing child, stating that the uncertainty takes a toll on one’s spirit and soul.
Chris, described as an outdoorsy individual with a passion for music, had moved to Burlington 18 months before his disappearance. He had struggled with alcohol addiction, seeking rehabilitation before his disappearance. His last known communication was on a family group chat, where he seemed positive about his future plans just a day before he went missing.
Despite multiple trips to Burlington and surrounding areas, including collaborations with law enforcement and distributing flyers with Chris’s image, the family has not found any leads. They are determined not to let his case go cold and continue their search with unwavering hope. A fundraiser was held in Morrisville, Vermont, to gather resources for the ongoing search efforts.
Sandy’s message to Chris, if he is out there, is one of love, longing, and hope for a reunion. The family remains dedicated to finding him and bringing him home. If you wish to support their search efforts, donations can be made to their GoFundMe page.
