We’re one of the families that has a missing loved one. We will have a family that’s going to get closure now,” Moreau said. “So it isn’t us, but one of these times, it’s got to be.”Kim Moreau went missing in May 1986 after leaving her family home on Jewell Street, saying she was going out for an hour.

The site where Dick Moreau found the remains is one street over and up a hill from the family’s home.Around the same time, Harold Simpson, a 28-year-old from Livermore Falls, also went missing. He was last seen fishing with a friend in August 1986, three months after Kim disappeared.Police have not made any connection between Simpson and the remains that were found.For Dick Moreau, the search for Kim Moreau continues.”All we want is to get Kim home, give her a proper burial and let me take down all these posters so my family and myself will finally get some relief,” he said.Moreau plans to ask police to return to the area with search dogs, hoping that if one set of remains was found, there might be more. He remains determined to find his daughter.
