Description of the missing person

Joseph is a husband and a father of 5: four daughters and one son. His youngest was only five years old when her father went missing. Joseph possessed an amiable personality and a generous character. He was also very hardworking. Yet, even though he used to go to work early in the morning only to return after sunset, he always had time for his children. His 5 kids used to wait for him to return home so that they can welcome him back and spend some time with him. And since photography was a passion of his; whenever the opportunity presented itself, he’d take his camera and roam the streets of Beirut.

Circumstances of the Disappearance

On the morning of April 29th, 1976, and after having dropped off his cousin at the airport, Joseph made a deal with him that he will return to pick him up at 03:00 pm, and then he went on his way headed towards Daoura where he worked. However, Joseph was never able to go pick up his cousin at 03:00. Somewhere on the road between the airport and Daoura, Joseph had disappeared. He has been missing ever since that day.
