SEVEN years on and the heartbreak Innes Park man Mick Peet felt when he first discovered his 24-year-old daughter Lateesha Nolan had gone missing is just as fresh, just as painful.
The family will mark the anniversary of Ms Nolan's disappearance with a quiet vigil tomorrow.
In the past months memories of her disappearance have been stirred up yet again by the search for one of New South Wales' most wanted men, Malcolm John Naden, who is believed to have been involved in Ms Nolan's disappearance.
Naden was first spotted in early December in bushland near Nowendoc, west of Tamworth, and is suspected of shooting a police officer in the shoulder.
Naden has managed to evade police since the search began.
But the extensive search is not going to stop Mr Peet from observing seven years since he lost his daughter.
Mr Peet said family and friends would be holding a private vigil for his daughter at his Innes Park home.
The shattered father has also set up an online vigil on Facebook, where anyone can post messages of support to the family, and he is urging people to light a candle at 7pm in Ms Nolan's memory.
"The last four weeks have been pretty hectic," he said.
"It brings everything back from that day on."
Mr Peet is desperate for Naden to be captured alive so that he could provide answers on Ms Nolan's disappearance.
"I think they had their chance on that," Mr Peet said.
"I think he is going to be pretty hard to catch."
But that does not mean Mr Peet has given up on ever finding out what happened.
"Every day I hope that I have answers to her disappearance," he said.
Ms Nolan was last seen leaving her grandparents' house in the Dubbo area.
To join the online vigil, search "Lateesha Nolan" on Facebook.

Not beaten, just bushed in the search for Malcolm Naden

Ms Nolan's father, Mick Peet, who held a candlelight vigil for his missing daughter this week, was yesterday critical of how the hunt for Naden had been handled.
"It's devastating really for them to get so close and then fail," he said.
"The last sighting, where they sent just two officers, I think everyone would agree they should have had that place surrounded."
Ms York said strike force officers were busy chasing other leads.
It is understood Naden spent hours at the property, using the internet, eating, cutting his hair and shaving and now resembles the updated photo police are circulating that shows him with shorter hair and a moustache.

Naden plan change

CHANGES to the NSW Police force operations base suggest Australia’s most wanted man Malcolm Naden is edging closer to the coast.In a press conference yesterday at Newcastle Police Station, Assistant Commissioner Carlene York revealed two major changes in arguably Australia’s largest man hunt for some years.
The command post in which police had been operating for more than four weeks at Nowendoc will be moved south-east to the township of Gloucester.
Assistant Commissioner York said the move was to provide police with better services and resources.
Secondly, the search-based investigation has been scaled back to an investigation.
Despite the change in tack, Assistant Commissioner York assured all police were still committed to catching the fugitive.
“We’re still maintaining the main area around Nowendoc down to the Gloucester and south of the areas he’s been sighted previously,” she said. “We are using two different strategies; one is we’re continuing our search and our gridding and our police going out to different cabins and trying to see if they’re broken into even if the owners don’t go to those premises.”
The new phase of the investigation means police will focus heavily on intelligence gathering to finally locate Naden.
“We’ve had a lot of work done by our analysts plotting the locations of previous break and enters over the six years, putting in timelines, working out where he may or may not travel and what’s the preferred means of travel, or paths that he may use in that area.
“And that’s all intelligence-based policing that gives us information about his movements.”
Naden is wanted for the murder of 24-year-old Dubbo woman Kristy Scholes and an indecent assault against a 15-year-old girl.
Ms Scholes was found dead in June, 2005.
Naden is also believed to have information about the disappearance of Dubbo woman Lateesha Nolan.
He was also allegedly responsible for the shooting of a police officer in early December 2011.
There have been reports the increase in the reward for the capture of Malcolm Naden could entice would-be bounty hunters to attempt to track him down.
The reward was raised to $250,000 after the alleged officer shooting late last year.
Police fear the increased incentive could be too much temptation for those after cash.
Wanted: Malcolm Naden.
