Dozens Of Volunteers
The hectic search welcomed dozens of members of the community who came along to help. A lot of them walked up and down the mountain in the rain just trying to locate the missing child. “A bunch of us came out here even before the police were called and decided to walk to see what we could do,” Lori Marr said. Tim Lawson, another volunteer, took his dog out with him. He hoped the smell would help the dog locate Kaydon and Chula. “I have kids of my own,” Lawson said. “If my kid was missing, I would hope someone would try to help find them.”

Happy Ending
Thankfully for everyone involved, this story had a happy ending. Of course, things could have taken a much darker turn. Woods spoke about how this particular story became a highlight in his career as a firefighter. “I’ve seen a lot of bad stuff in 20 years, that right there yesterday makes up for it all,” Woods said. “When it ends the way it ended yesterday, it makes up for it all.” It’s been said that Kaydon and Chula were found cuddling for warmth. When the sun came up, the 6-year-old said he tried finding his way back home.
