Thanks ''Guard Dog'' from Porchlight for the additional information on Regan.


''I have changed the Winnipeg Police Service's missing persons article on Regan Pace Ambrose.

There was an incorrect spelling. The police had said it was Tokuama where Regan went missing from but in fact it was Tokuyama in Yamaguchi Prefecture, known for it's elderly population.

On April 21, 2003, the city of Tokuyama merged with the city of Shinnan'yô, Yamaguchi and the towns of Kumage and Kano to form the new city of Shûnan.

The only hospital I was able to locate which I believe Regan was employed by, as a nurse, was then known as Tokuyama Central Hospital. I do not know if the hospital name has changed since the city's merger in 2003.''

Tokuyama (徳山市, Tokuyama-shi) was a city located in Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan.

On April 21, 2003, Tokuyama, along with the city of Shinnan'yō, the town of Kumage (from Kumage District), and the town of Kano (from Tsuno District), was merged to create the city of Shūnan.

The city had a population of about 150,000 people. Its location along the Sanyō Shinkansen made for easy access to nearby cities such as Hiroshima and Fukuoka. Hikari holds a sizable beach.

REGAN PACE (ROSTE) AMBROSE April 2, 1968 - January 10, 1998 It is with the deepest regret and the strongest of sadness we feel it is time to let go of our hopes and tell the world our beautiful daughter, sister, is gone! We still don't know what happened that day our lives changed forever, we only know we lost a part of ourselves and it will never be the same without you. Your brothers and I wish you were with us to share in our lives as there is always an unspoken sadness. Regan was a very intelligent girl, with beauty and a whole life to live ahead of her and this makes the acceptance of these words so hard to print. Regan, you will always live in our hearts and our minds and you are truly missed on each day that passes which time can not heal. Regan has left to mourn her brother Aron, wife (Bonnie), daughter (Hailey), son (Carter); brother Ryan, wife (Julie), daughter (Eva); mother Judy, husband (Bob). Regan lived her life in Winnipeg until graduating from the University of Manitoba with her Bachelor of Nursing Degree in 1990. After working with the V.O.N. in Winnipeg for a few years Regan moved to Vancouver, B.C. and it was from here that she took a nursing job at a hospital in Japan and this is where we lost our daughter and sister.
