Fighter
Investigators felt that Paige’s bones told a story, a story of a fighter. They believed the scattered items where Paige’s was leaving behind a trail. Of course Paige’s family were overwhelmed with all the new discoveries. “My feelings were a heavy dose of sadness. Even when we were searching, you wanted to find her, but you didn’t want to find her,” Frank Birgfeld said.
Peace, At Last
Throughout this whole tragic ordeal, Paige’s family experienced a lot of grief – her disappearance, years of uncertainty, the exposure of her secret life, and her heartbreaking death – the Birgfelds put this behind them and chose to remember Paige as she was, a loving mother, sister, and daughter. They would need this love, a trial was about to take place.
