If I Am Missing or Dead

by Janine Latus

In April 2002, Janine Latus' younger sister, Amy, taped a note to the inside of her desk at work. It read: 'If I am missing or dead, pick up Ron Ball'. When her family first read these prophetic words, ten weeks later, Amy had been missing for a week. Ron Ball was her boyfriend, and by the time the note was found, Amy was dead.
