That’s the building my boyfriend lived in until just last year. I’ll have to mention this to him. Glad she was found!
Where was she found?
@Celia
Thanks for the good news! I’m glad she’s safe and sound.
Great news Celia, thank you for posting
She has been found! I saw her yesterday being taken care of by emergency workers.
Posters need to put up about this. Prayers.
another quick question — if the family went to the police then why didn’t the police have this put on TV — this is very important —
Tell every traffic enforcement cop in the area to put away their ticket book for half a day and pretend this woman is an illegally parked car and find her.
Old people need to be chipped and not allowed to drive.
So sad. My mom had dementia and this was always my fear. I hope she is found safe and sound.
Will keep a look out!
Why is this not on every TV station — she is a Senior Citizen — it is called a “Silver Alert”
