For those of you that either never heard of or may need their memories freshened, HaLeigh Cummings is the 5 year old little girl from Florida that disappeared in February 2009. She was last seen sleeping on her pallet on the floor in her Dad’s bedroom while under the care of her then 17 year old babysitter, Misty Croslin. You can read more about HaLeigh’s story here to catch up if you would like to. HaLeigh is still missing. No one seems to know what happened to her. There are lots of theories about what happened, but either way, no one can prove their theory so no one knows for sure. The family needs to find the answers though, so they can go on with their lives.
HaLeigh’s birthday is coming up on August 17 and her family, as they always do, will try to celebrate her life the best way they can. This will be HaLeigh’s 10th birthday and her family can think of nothing better for her birthday than for her to come home. They miss her so much. This year due to personal hardships the family might just decide to do this privately. If they decide to hold a Vigil I will post the information on here for everyone to see.
Every year on HaLeigh’s birthday, I sit at home during a quiet moment and light a candle in her memory and I say a prayer for her. I’d like to ask all of you to please do the same this year. Let’s show HaLeigh she has not been forgotten. This is the little girl that we have all come to love.
In the meantime I have received some information from HaLeigh’s grandmother, Teresa Neves about a special account that was set up at HaLeigh’s school for people to make donations to, in order to help the children receive the proper school supplies that they need for the upcoming school year. Donations can be school supplies, underwear for little boys and girls, or cash the school will use to buy the needed supplies not in HaLeigh’s Closet.
Checks are to be made out to the school with HaLeigh’s name, HaLeigh Cummings or HaLeigh’s Closet, in the memo section. The school has a special account set up for donations for HaLeigh’s Closet but if there is not a memo or note that specifies it is for HaLeigh the money will go directly into the school’s account so it is important that it is noted some where that the donation is for HaLeigh’s’ s Closet.
All donations are greatly appreciated by HaLeigh’s family and all the families who are helped by your donations. Thank you all who have given or plan to give. May God bless you for your generosity in HaLeigh’s name.
Donations can be sent here:
Browning-Pearce Elementary School
100 Bear Blvd, San Mateo, FL 32187 |
(386) 329-0557
Any donation big or small will be appreciated. If you live in the area, you are welcomed to just drop off the donations at the school during regular school hours, just be sure to say it is to go to HaLeigh’s Closet.
This family has been through hell and back, yet their faith in God keeps them going. Please join me in my prayers for all of them. I pray God will bring them peace once again by bringing HaLeigh home again. God bless you all that join me in this prayer. God bless you HaLeigh, where ever you are. I hope one day soon you will find your way home.

Follow-up comment rss or Leave a TrackbackThank you Miss Jan. You are so kind to remember HaLeigh so often with so much compassion. I did want to say that there will be a vigil on August 10, 2013 as that day will mark four and one half years our precious HaLeigh has been missing. This vigil will be open to anyone who would like to come and pray with us for HaLeigh’s safe return. I do not have a set time as of yet but I should have it by the end of the week and will post it asap. We hope that all who love HaLeigh will make plans to attend and stand united with us as we pray for the miracle of HaLeigh’s safe return. God bless you and all those who remember HaLeigh.
Hi, Jan!
Thank you for the informative article.
As I do every year, I will light a candle and say a special prayer for HaLeigh and observe silence with special thoughts of HaLeigh.
For your info, I posted a new thread at Reality Chatter which includes snippets of your article with a Link back to this article.
I hope it will generate some donations to Browning-Pearce Elementary School.

Jan, thank you for your dedication in ensuring HaLeigh’s name is “kept out there.” <3
I just don’t understand how this beautiful child could disappear off the face of the map. No trace…no body, bones, confessions, nothing… I think TJ is right. She o’d and was thrown somewhere where she will never surface. How sad. Although I am still angry with all the players…misty, ronald etc…I still pray for them. I pray that they will either remember something or confess something.. I wonder how little ronald is doing… tears and prayers..thats all I have to offer… Thanks Jan for the article… Your heart is made of gold.
Thanks a lot Jan for the article. Hello methinks great too see you. I too am still angry with the players in this tragedy. I too pray for them as well. I will join you in your prayer Jan and light a candle for Haleigh on her birthday. jmo
