In the late winter of 1969, a 50-year-old woman named Faun Moulton Moon disappeared from her home in Eugene, Oregon, leaving behind a life that had recently been overturned. On March 1st of that year, she was seen for the last time. Friends and family knew she was deeply saddened by a recent divorce. In the days leading up to her disappearance, Faun had taken deliberate steps to put her financial affairs in order. She also wrote goodbye letters to her daughters, a final communication before she vanished. Dressed in a blue cotton nightgown and robe, a distinctive bright turquoise knee-length wool coat with a black fur collar, and brown loafers, she walked away from her home and was never heard from again. Faun was a woman of specific habits and features. She had sandy brown hair, hazel eyes, and very thin eyebrows. A scar marked her abdomen. Although she typically wore eyeglasses, she left them behind on the day she disappeared. It is believed she was carrying a small beige Samsonite suitcase and a small brown purse. Her five-foot-six to five-foot-seven inch frame and 135-pound build would have been clad in the colorful coat, a stark contrast to the somber circumstances of her departure. The case of Faun Moon has remained unsolved for decades, a quiet and sorrowful mystery. The details available paint a picture of a woman in emotional distress, methodically preparing to leave her known life behind. The Lane County Sheriff's Office has maintained her case file over the years, a testament to the enduring question of her whereabouts. The act of leaving her glasses, a necessary item for her, suggests a possible intention to not be found. Her disappearance is a poignant example of how a person can vanish, leaving behind only memories and unanswered questions for their loved ones.
