As police tried to identify apparent remains found in Hummel Park, Melissa Harris waited at home Friday night while the rest of the family went to a concert to benefit the Amber Harris reward fund.

Amber's father, Michael Harris says, "We don't want to sit around waiting for the phone to ring. We decided to come out here and support the cause."

The concert was organized, in part, by Amber's classmates at Beveridge Middle School and even though her story has been heard by thousands in Omaha only a small group turned out Friday night.

Amber's principal, Cara Riggs says, "It's a little somber. I wonder if people didn't come because they are home worried."

Ashleigh Reis didn't want to stay away. The teenager was one of the last to see Amber. They rode the same school bus on the day that Amber vanished.

As a camera recorded the last known images of Amber, Ashleigh says Amber told her she would give her a call. That's a call she says she still waits for six months later.

Ashleigh says, "If Amber's still alive she can see me and see how much everyone cares for her. If she's dead she's in their hearts. She's in mine too."

Michael Harris says, "We want to do everything we can to get information out there, find out the whereabouts of our daughter, Amber Harris."

Anyone who has information on Amber should call 444-5600.
