The family is very concerned about Trinity’s safety and well-being.

On Feb. 18, Trinity’s mom Tammy shared a message on the Missing: Trinity Poil Facebook page: “Trinity is an amazing young woman. She is funny and creative and caring. She spent most of her time playing and developing video games online. She also enjoys writing stories, drawing, or making up puzzles and riddles. Her smile was infectious and her excitement over anything she enjoyed, no matter how small, would worm it’s way into everyone hearts. She has two younger brothers who miss her terribly. My youngest (five years old) has started saving things for her – a sticker, a timbit … they both really love hanging out with her and miss all the things she would teach them. We are beside ourselves with grief. We keep hoping today is the day she will walk through that door. We hope wherever she is she is safe, loved and warm. We won’t stop looking.”
