The motives of the kidnapping are unclear at this time but the family remains hopeful that the situation will be resolved quickly and positively within the next few days. The community has begun a fast for the safe and speedy return of President Romney. In recent months, the local communities have taken pro-active measures to ensure the safety of their citizens.

Steve Dockstader said it better than we could when he made the following comment: "How interesting that so many decendants of the original Colonia residents have found this site. I would venture to say that there would be no other realistic way for us to find one another and exchange stories and information and most of all, learn about where we come from. Just because of what I have learned here I have kept looking into my family history."
