The disappearance of Theada May Fixsen has been a somber mystery for decades, leaving her family and community searching for answers. Theada, a 34-year-old female, was last seen in Albany, Oregon, on October 21, 1986. Six days later, on October 27, 1986, she was officially reported as a missing person to the Albany Police Department. Since that time, there has been no contact from Theada, and her whereabouts remain unknown. Her case is classified as an endangered missing person, raising significant concerns for her welfare from the outset. The passage of time has not diminished the hope of discovering what happened to Theada, and her case remains an active investigation. Theada was a person with distinct physical characteristics. She had black hair and brown eyes, stood between 5'0" and 5'6" tall, and weighed between 160 and 180 pounds at the time of her disappearance. Notably, she had prosthetic plastic joints in both of her elbows and scars on both of those joints. Additionally, she had a chipped front left tooth and a previously fractured wrist. These details have been crucial in the ongoing effort to identify her. Sadly, Theada also struggled with her mental health and had a history of at least one prior suicide attempt, a factor that has been considered in the investigation into her disappearance. Despite extensive efforts by law enforcement and her family, Theada has never been found. The investigation has included comprehensive searches and the collection of DNA samples from relatives to develop a mitochondrial DNA profile. This profile has been entered into national databases with the hope of a future match. The Albany Police Department continues to hold the case, designated with agency case number 02-7618. The lack of significant leads over the years has been a source of profound and enduring pain for her loved ones. The case of Theada Fixsen is a haunting example of the lasting impact of a person's disappearance, a story without an ending that underscores the ongoing need for public awareness and assistance in resolving long-unsolved missing persons cases.
