ALTON — In 2008, Michael A. Womack of Alton went missing without any trace.
Thirteen years later, family and friends gathered Wednesday to release balloons in his memory, hoping he will be found.
Apryll Pittman, Womack’s sister, said the family tries to get together every year to do a balloon release.
“If Michael is out there, then he knows that his family is still waiting for him,” Pittman said.
