"Eric Larsfolk's family had just moved from Fort Erie into a Caledon-area
farmhouse that summer of 1981. The Larsfolks had lost their greenhouse
business and they were all looking forward to starting over.

There even seemed to be a good omen when Eric, 14, won a bicycle at the
local Dairy Queen. "We took a picture of him outside the store that day,"
recalls his father Lloyd in the living room of his Brampton home. "That was
the last picture we had of him."

He recounts the horror in a weary, hollow voice. In mid-August, their
neighbour's son arrived home after weeks in Virginia. Both about the same
age, Eric became fast friends with John McCormick and the two could often be
found on the McCormicks' sprawling 150-acre property, playing around the
gravel pit or riding in John's old Chevy.

So Larsfolk didn't think twice when his youngest son told him and his wife
Beverley that he was heading over to the McCormicks' after dinner that Aug.
He didn't know that he would never see his son again.

But then there was much he didn't know. He had no idea that John McCormick
Sr. was an alcoholic or that he had beaten his son so badly that it had sent
him to hospital. It was after his discharge that John Jr. had been sent to
the States to visit relatives.

The boy had only been back home for 10 days.

It was after 11 p.m. when a frantic Joyce McCormick arrived at the
Larsfolks' door looking for her son, John. When she learned that the boys
were supposedly together at her house -- she had been out that evening --
the search began.

"John (Sr.) was drunk at the time and he said he hadn't seen the boys,"
Larsfolk says. But Eric's bike was outside their house.

John McCormick Sr. joined in the search that night -- but that would be the
last time he would help out. He would never make a public appeal for his son
or speak to reporters.

They found the boys' footprints in the gravel pit on the McCormick property,
but they stopped at the fence.

"That was the last indication of the two boys," says Larsfolk, 71. "We
turned the world upside down to find them."

They did grid searches of the bush, dragged all the ponds, hunted in every
barn and every well. Long after they had moved away, Larsfolk would return
and search some more.

He could not let go. He still can't, even after all this time. The
McCormicks, though, packed up John's room a few days after he went missing.

John Sr. died of cirrhosis of the liver on Oct. 15, 1987.

The OPP say their prime suspect is dead, but they will say little more.

After McCormick's death, his widow sold the property and moved away. She has
never spoken publicly about her son's disappearance except to tell the local
paper, "I just want to let it go."

Psychics have repeatedly told the Larsfolks that the boys are dead and
buried near Caledon.

On May 13, 2000, the OPP searched a horse barn on the McCormick property.
Using new ground penetrating technology, they were able to investigate
whether there had been anything buried under the concrete floor. Again,
nothing.

Beverley Larsfolk died of breast cancer on May 23, 2000 without ever
learning her son's fate.

"I wonder if she's talked to Eric," her husband says softly. "I wish she'd
tell me if she has."

The suspect was John McCormick Sr, deceased.

Police re-open 1980s missing persons case
Monday October 25 2010
By Heather Abrey, Enterprise Staff

Lloyd Larsfolk still holds out hope that his son is alive somewhere, even after nearly 30 years.

It was on Aug. 24, 1981 that then 15-year-old John McCormick Jr. and 14-year-old Eric Larsfolk were last seen on the McCormick family farm on Horseshoe Hill Road, heading toward a local gravel pit. No one has seen or heard from the boys since and no arrests have ever been made.

Fast forward 30 years to Oct. 25, 2010 and Caledon OPP were back at the McCormick farm, now owned by Sarah Graham, hoping to find some sign of the two missing boys.

The disappearance has remained a mystery, but OPP never close a case. Not until it’s solved.

“He just disappeared. We don’t know how or why,” said Eric Larsfolk’s father, Lloyd. “(This is) very important. Nothing is more important than finding my son.”

Detective Inspector Andy Karski is spearheading the investigation of this cold case – the second one from Caledon he has taken on in the last two years, the first being murdered teen Veronica Kaye, discovered in Caledon in 1981.

The investigation is still considered a missing persons case, as no bodies have ever been located. Foul play cannot be ruled out, according to police, but nor can they speculate.

Officers were employing new equipment – a ground penetrating radar – in the hopes of locating new evidence.

“It’s fairly new to the organization,” said Caledon OPP Constable Jonathan Beckett of the radar, which can penetrate 10 feet below the ground’s surface. Police will be “able to use the new technology to search areas that were identified in the original investigation.”

Officers were expected to be at the farm for a day or two, searching half a dozen locations on the property that were originally identified, according to Karski. There are more locations outside of the farm slated to be investigated at a later date.

“We’ve gone back to the locations of interest from the last investigation and this is where the boys were last seen,” explained Karski.

The day started off in a young forest. The trees here were only saplings when the two friends went missing those many years ago, but Lloyd remembers it well.

“I?looked for broken branches where somebody could have carried the kids in, but I?didn’t find anything. But I looked,”?he told officers as they scanned the ground for disruptions in the soil. “I?hope really they don’t find anything.”?

Then at least, there’s still hope.

More details on this investigation will follow in the Thursday edition of The Enterprise.
