Viola

One of our heroes needs our prayers. He's Jim Viola, husband of missing Patricia Viola. She's been missing since February of 2001 from Bogota, NJ.
Since her disappearance, Jim has rallied to the aid of other families of the missing, using his skills and talents with the computer and internet to make them audio/video presentations, offering them advice and support and much more.

With the exception of another family who testified at the senate hearing, Jim has single-handedly run the Campaign for the Missing in the state of NJ. If successful at passing this bill, thousands of present and future missing persons cases have a better chance of being resolved.

Jim (and the NJ lawmakers) need your prayers. This bill, named Patricia's Law after Jim's beloved wife, is currently in committee. The committee needs to place the bill on the senate agenda by 11/19 to then be voted on by 12/13.

If unsuccessful, Jim will need to begin anew with his effort in 2008. If successful, NJ will join CT, IN and OR as other states passed through Project Jason's Campaign for the Missing this year.

The people of NJ (and all states without it) need this bill passed. Jim has made such a tremendous effort in educating the NJ senate and the citizens of NJ about what's missing with procedures to help find our loved ones.

I ask that for those of you who pray, to join me in hope and prayer that Patricia's Law will be passed in 2007.

Let Jim know you are grateful for his efforts and support him by signing his guestbook.

Thanks, Jim, for being one of our heroes!

Kelly, Project Jason
