Denise (Jeffrey's mother) and him were outside, just before 1:00pm on April 24, 1980. Jeffrey said that he wanted to go play with his 5-year-old next door neighbor, Rodney. Denise went inside to move some laundry from the washer to the dryer. When inside, she heard through an open window Rodney’s dad call him to come inside. Looking outside and seeing neither boy, she assumed they had both headed into Rodney’s house with his dad. It was about 20 minutes later when Rodney knocked on Denise’s door looking for Jeffrey. There has been no sign of Jeffrey since.
