Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP120622) and 5 other sources
Vera Schrader, aged 49, was last seen on May 14, 1964, in Ojai, California. On that day, she did not return home to the 200 block of El Camino Drive after work, which was highly unusual. She left behind three children, and her disappearance was completely out of character. Her ex-husband and family could not think of any reason why she would have left on her own. At the time of her disappearance, Vera was wearing a tan sweater and a blue dress. She had brown hair, gray eyes, and was known to wear dentures. Additionally, she had a scar on her abdomen.

Despite initial investigations, few details have emerged over the years, and Vera's disappearance remains a mystery. Her case is classified as missing, and the Ventura County Sheriff's Office continues to investigate, hoping for new information that could shed light on what happened to her.

Her case has remained unsolved for decades, and there have been no significant leads that explain her sudden vanishing.

Last Seen: May 14, 1964
