Headline: Mystery of the Missing Jack Family: 35 Years Later, Questions Remain
In a haunting case that has puzzled investigators and gripped the hearts of many, it has now been 35 years since the Jack family mysteriously disappeared in northern B.C. The year was 1989 when Ronnie and Doreen Jack, along with their young sons Russell and Ryan, seemingly vanished into thin air from their home on Strathcona Avenue in Prince George, B.C.
