A,

So sorry about news on R's father. Poor R!

Found out desk sgt took at least 4 msgs from R to M or me while we were at seminar. He THOUGHT he'd do us a "favor" and trash them. M ripping him new hole. V waiting to put him on duty where won't see light of day again. Doesn't help R though!

Airline records show R left for Sydney, Aus on 9/24. Connecting flight to Darwin. Nothing beyond that yet.

M and I will meet you at airport. S may be with us.

We're ALL SO sorry and worried! WHAT must  poor R have been thinking by then?!? To go through this alone!

V already approved paid leave for M to help you find him.
