Luis’ mother continued to hope that he would one day return safe and sound. Tragically, she died in 2005 at the age of 92 without ever knowing what happened to her much-missed son.

His niece, Alida Alequin, 63, who had remained in Oakland, was determined to find her long-lost uncle and, with the help of local police, FBI and the Department of Justice, she managed to piece together the clues.

Oakland police say their efforts “played an integral role in finding her uncle.”

In the time since he was taken from his family, Luis seemed to have led a decent life, having worked as a firefighter and served in the Marine Corps, including two tours of duty in Vietnam. He had also become a father and grandfather himself.

Alida managed to organize a reunion for the two brothers, Luis and Roger, now 83, to meet for the first time in 73 years.
