A BRITISH family have launched a last-ditch appeal to find missing dad Edward Cook almost 10 years after he vanished from Spain.
Cook, 54, originally from Huyton in Merseyside, was last seen dropping off his daughter Lucia at Alicante airport back in April 2011.
He had been staying at Camping Villa Mar campsite in Benidorm and was also known to regularly frequent Marbella on the Costa del Sol.
“We are desperate for closure,” Lucia, now 18, told the Olive Press today, “it’s been so hard not knowing what happened to him.”
The Liverpool-born teen, who was 10 when she last saw her dad, added that the family wanted to try one more time for information before applying for a death certificate.
“It’s such a hard thing to do but after so many years it’s really difficult to believe he is alive somewhere.
“Anyone who knows my dad knows what a great father he is and that he would never leave me at 10-years-old.
“We just want some answers.”
Edward, who also has connections to Dublin in Ireland, is white and 5ft 10in tall with a tanned complexion, short brown hair, blue eyes and a Scouse accent.
