    Ramona Brown- The Girl Who Vanished

    On the 6th of March, 1984, a tragic incident struck the city of New Orleans. A family home was caught in a horrifying fire in the middle of the night. This unfortunate event resulted in the loss of two young lives, a tragedy that left the family and the community devastated. Among the victims was three-year-old Ramona Brown. It was believed that Ramona, like her two siblings Kevin and Aubrey, had also perished in the fire. However, her remains were never found, leading to a mystery that has remained unsolved for decades. According to her six-year-old sister, Ramona managed to escape the burning house with her. The elder sister recalls that a car stopped by them, offering help amidst the chaos. She remembers watching her little sister get into the car, but no one else recalls seeing Ramona escape the house.
